Comment 9 for bug 450213

Hi Neil:

Sorry for the late reply. Thanks a lot for sharing your script! I am sure you are noticed how important the pdf export is to many users. That's why contributions like your script are most appreciated. I had a quick look at the script and it looks really neat. I would not worry too much about the features that are not yet supported. Actually, the only important feature an export script needs is to show one slide after the other, since to do it right everything else needs to be done in the browser by the way of a two-stage export. As far as speed is concerned, well faster is better, but I would guess that in typical usage, exports are fairly infrequent operations, so speed is not the biggest concern.

The questions that popped into my head were: Does the script run on any platform? And does the user need to install any additional programs/packages apart from Inkscape?

Cheers,
Hannes
