Hi Alvin
Thanks for the feedback. I used Vacuum Defs in 0.48 on one of my images
that was 13MB and it decreased it to just over 1mb :-) . Is the a program
that can scan through all my images that I created with inkscape and do the
same job? Do I have to click on each image and run vacuum defs?
Remember that if and image is too big in 0.48, The app crashes when opening
the image.... or if Itry opening it with 0.92... it literally takes forever
to open.

Best Regards
