title: Inkscape "PDF + Latex" export
body: <p>I'm using inkscape to produce vector figures, save them in SVG format to export them later as &quot;PDF + Latex&quot; much in the vein of TUG inkscape+pdflatex guide.</p>
  <p>Trying to produce a simple figure, however, turns out to be extremely frustating.</p>
  <p>The first figure
  <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/jIo3z.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/jIo3z.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a>
  is an example of the figure I would like to export in the form of &quot;PDF + Latex&quot; (shown here in PNG format).</p>
  <p>If I export this to a PDF figure <em>without</em> latex macros the PDF produced looks exactly the same, except for some minor differences with the fonts used to render the text.</p>
  <p>When I try to export this using the &quot;PDF + Latex&quot; option the PDF file produced consists on a PDF document of 2 pages (again as .png here):
  <a href="https://i.stack.imgur.com/I9kdf.png" rel="nofollow noreferrer"><img src="https://i.stack.imgur.com/I9kdf.png" alt="enter image description here" /></a></p>
  <p>This, of course, does not looks good when compiling my latex document. So far the guide at TUG has been very helpful, but I still can't produce a <em>working</em> &quot;PDF + Latex&quot; export from inkscape.</p>
  <p>What am I doing wrong?</p>
