When I simply copy scientific figures made in Excel and try to paste it into Inkscape, nothing happens. When I do the same in Corel, it works fine. After saving this Corel-transformed figure in Corel as svg I can open it in Inkscape and edit without problem. So, the Corel can transform it into an Inkscape-editable format (WMF >> SVG?), while Inkscape itself cannot. Why is that? Is that related to the WMF/EMF stuff reported elsewhere? Does it mean that there will be no solution for this issue in the future? PNG is not acceptable. I need editable vector graphic. I do the final touches of all my scientific figures in Corel right now, because it allows precise arrangement and sizing. Working in svg is just fine, I like Inkscape, but this import issue is annoying... Please, recommend some solution!
Hello!
What version of Inkscape are you using? and what OS?
Copy and paste using vector formats was added after the 0.46 release, I think. Copy and paste using EMF on Windows certainly was.
If you know some specific WMF/EMF import issues please file seperate bugs with minimal example files demonstrating each issue.
Thanks
