Convert dxf to svg on the command line

Postby chri » Fri Jan 29, 2010 9:33 pm

Hello,

I am trying to export dxf drawings with Inkscape to svg on the command line with this command:

Code: Select all

inkscape input.dxf --export-plain-svg=output.svg -z

The file is exported but there pops up a dxf Import dialog. Is there a command line switch to avoid this dialog and just go with the default settings? The man page gives no clue.

Further is it possible to transpose the dxf data to the top left corner of the Inkscape viewport to avoid empty space on top and the left side? When I use the "export-area-drawing" or "export-area-snap" switch, this does not seem to work for svg export (but it did for png).
