Figure Export from Inkscape to "EPS+LaTeX " fails

Post by bernardoct »

Hi everyone,

I'm writing my dissertation with kile (linux) and I have to produce a lot of figures with text in them. For those I'm using inkscape and saving the figure as eps with the option "EPS+LaTeX: Omit text in EPS, and create LaTeX file" marked so that the text of the figure is nicelly represented. However, when I compile my document the figure is inserted in the document without the text! :(

I have those includes:

Code: Select all

\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{accents}
\usepackage[pdftex]{graphicx}
\usepackage[utf8x]{inputenc}
\usepackage{epsf}
\usepackage{epstopdf}
\usepackage{ucs}
I inserted the figure with:

Code: Select all

\begin{figure}
 \centering
 \includegraphics{./Methodology/VisualIndex.eps}
 % VisualIndex.eps: 0x0 pixel, 300dpi, 0.00x0.00 cm, bb=0 -1 300 212
 \caption{Model physical scheme}
 \label{FigVisualIndex}
\end{figure}
And I'm using the options --shell-escape -interaction=nonstopmode '%source' to compile my document.

Does anyone there what the problem might be?

Thanks in advance!
Bernardo

Have a look at this post, where I explained how to properly include LaTeX fonts in your Inkscape images.
