This extension was developed to help produce publication quality figures for scientific journals. The extension uses ImageJ to load image data and the Apache Commons Codec library to encode the data for embedding. If preserving image quality is a priority jpeg compression and resampling can be explicitly avoided. Writing the cropped and possibly compressed image data directly in the SVG fileīy cropping image data that lies outside the clipping frame, applying jpeg compression, or resampling to lower resolution, the resulting file size can be reduced significantly.Optionally resampling images above a maximum resolution.Cropping image data that lies outside the images’ clipping frame.

Automatically identifying all linked images.

This java-based extension for Inkscape facilitates image embedding by: However, embedding images may be required as a final step in some production work-flows.

Referencing images as links keeps SVG files small and ensures that changes to image placement and transformations specified in the SVG file remain separate from the underlying image data. Inkscape is a powerful open-source vector graphics editor which supports the inclusion of raster images either through file references (links) or through direct embedding of the image data in the Inkscape SVG file.
