However, if your image needs to have its contrast improved or needs to be cropped, simply open the photo in GIMP or Photoshop to adjust its levels and contrast (in Photoshop, go to Image > Adjustments > Levels), crop your writing, and save the image as a PNG or JPG file. If your image has good contrast and your writing is the only thing in the photo, you’re ready to then import it into Inkscape. We’ll make sure there are no shadows in the photo and that we have adequate lighting for the best results. Next, we’ll scan the writing or simply take a photo of it with our smartphone. This is important for contrast as we want to make sure the background and our writing stand out from each other. We’ve sketched out the word “hello” with this black marker on a sheet of white paper.
IMPORT INKSCAPE VECTORS INTO GIMP HOW TO
Once you know how to do it, you can easily create your own lettering styles to use in Inkscape. Today we’re going to be learning how to take handwriting and convert it into vector art in Inkscape quickly and easily. I tried to rotate one and it didn’t go so well.If you’re an Adobe Illustrator user, please see How to Convert Handwriting to Vector Art in Illustrator. However, I can’t transform them without them becoming blurry. I cut and paste them to separate layers so I could move them independently. Thank you so much, it worked they’re transparent. If you have several layers in inkscape might be possible to split the image up for easier handling into Gimp. Things you might need to do in Inkscape, ungroup objects, convert objects to vectors. Might be a lot of them but at least they are there.

That will get you an image much the same as exporting a png from Inkscape and also all the paths.

as well as scaling everything if required. In Gimp, a regular File -> Open to bring up the Render SVG dialogue. Had to pull out an ai from my sample images, in Inkscape ungrouped, saved as an Inkscape svg. Best you can expect is a flattened image.

(Please don’t suggest I redraw them in gimp because this is weeks and weeks of work, and need the pattern in the next couple of days) I’m not the most computer literate person, so please give very detailed instructions for solutions (I work best with pictures)
IMPORT INKSCAPE VECTORS INTO GIMP WINDOWS
I'm using windows 10, with 64 bit, and Gimp 2.10 So either I need a solution to enable the png images to be scaled UP or figure out why my vectors aren’t copy and pasting into gimp as transparent. They were scaled to the right size that I need when I exported them in inkscape, but are very small on the canvas in gimp which is the same size) But when I scale up the induvial drawings they get blurry, I’m guessing it’s because they are no longer vector lines, (which is why I tried to make them vectors in the first place).

I eventually selected and exported each individual line drawing as a png, then opened each as new layer in gimp, they are now transparent line drawings. (I need them transparent so I can layer the images over each other) I tried opening the svg file in Gimp, I tried saving as a png and opening in Gimp. I’ve tried the normal cut and paste, paste as new layer, duplicate and paste (everything that can be found on google search). They lose all transparency, both old and new drawings. (All line drawings) They’ve been working well in Inkscape, I’ve also added new images I made using the pen tool in Inkscape, now the problems starts when I try to copy and paste to Gimp. I saved all the AI files as svg’s before I ended my subscription with adobe. I’m trying to recreate and tweak a pattern tile that I originally made using Illustrator and Photoshop.
