Threads are either up or down, like black or white pixels, so I can't settle for grayscale (or vector) images. (the Merge imported paths box is grayed out).Ĭan you help me figure out what I need to do differently to do this Inkscape > Gimp move constructively?Īlternately, how would I manipulate the text gracefully entirely within Gimp?įinally, let me reiterate that the end use of this file is part of a weaving draft/instructions for a loom. I've been accepting the defaults in the Open dialog (image size, X ratio/Y-ratio locked and = 1.0000, resolution 90.000 px/in, and the Import Paths box is unchecked. The image size in preview has the right dimensions. On the Gimp side, all I have to do to see the issue is Open the. Copy my new objects to a new clean document with the same properties settings. Select just the text (using the Objects list) and choose Object to PathĨ. Select both the text and the curve, then in Text menu choose "put on path"ħ. Draw the line I want my text to follow with the Bezier pen. Use the Text tool, set the font size using px rather than points (and set to 12 or 18).
Set the document properties to make the size and display units = pxģ. And I can save that file as an SVG and open in it in GIMP as a 90x700 pixel image where it's full of gray antialiasing on a transparent background. So I can make my text and put it on a curve in Inkscape.
