Figures from Inkscape to LaTeX: Text Positioning in Inkscape?

Post by strongmint »

Hello,
I have been using Inkscape in my previous thesis, but now it's the first time that I use it in combination with Latex. I want to create my figures in Inkscape, but the text in my figures always differs in the compiled Latex document. For example: i want to create a circle with the text "V" in the center of this circle. In Inkscape, I can position the text precisely. But in the Latex document, the text differs from the original position.
My document is attached in this post, hope you understand my problem.

The smart way: Calm down and take a deep breath, read posts and provided links attentively, try to understand and ask if necessary.

I would have said something on golatex.de already, but I did not see code. :?
OTOH it's easy with circuitikz or the TikZ circuits library - my LaTeX cookbook has a TikZ circuits example. And there are circuitikz examples in the TeXample gallery.
