Graphics, Figures & Tables ⇒ Resolution-independent output for Inkscape

[theo moore]

I have this vector graphic I've been editing in Inkscape. I need to output this to .eps format, so that I can use LaTeX's psfrag to annotate it.

The problem is that when I compile the LaTeX document and examine the DVI output, I get a craggy picture when displayed on screen. This is still apparent when converting dvips -> ps2pdf and examining in Adobe Reader 9. This is a similar problem to here.

This is not a problem with printing.

Beginning from Inkscape (or Adobe Illustrator), how do I generate an EPS file that can be used in LaTeX to produce the end result of a PDF file that has SMOOTH (aliased) pictures?

I don't see what this has to do with the page you linked to: that's about type1 vs. type 3 fonts, and here we're talking about vector graphics.

If the printed output looks fine, I'd say you're just being too fussy about how it looks on the screen.

However, you might try pdf output with Inkscape, and then include the file, compiling with pdflatex, using the overpic package, or pgf/tikz layers, rather than PSfrag to overlay arbitrary TeX.

Furthermore the information given on the linked page is obsolete for a long time (see l2tabu).
