Re: [Gimp-user] SVG to PNG using a script
Are there any known caveats to running these command on Windows? I'm testing the above with CMD and no matter how I run it, it pops up a dialog asking me what resolution to import the file at, I can't get it to run non-interactively. - I've tried escaping the asterisks - I've tried gimp-2.10.exe - I've tried gimp-console-2.10.exe - I've tried swapping single quotes and double-quotes It works on macOS Gimp 2.10.14 but does not work on Windows using Gimp 2.10.18. When I try to run the first portion interactively, I receive the following errors: - Opening *'C:\Users\owner\Desktop\((image'* failed: Error opening file C:\Users\owner\Desktop\((image: No such file or directory - Opening *'C:\Users\owner\Desktop\(car'* failed: Error opening file C:\Users\owner\Desktop\(car: No such file or directory - Opening *'C:\Users\owner\Desktop\(file-svg-load'* failed: Error opening file C:\Users\owner\Desktop\(file-svg-load: No such file or directory I've tried using PowerShell and receive very similar results.

Michael, You're completely right, the web archive of that original post has it for download. Here's the web archive article, which specifically mentions downloading svg-to-raster.scm. https://web.archive.org/web/20140214102644/http://porpoisehead.net/mysw/index.php?pgid=gimp_svg Fortunately, web archive had a copy of the scheme source.

Re: [Gimp-user] SVG to PNG using a script
I'm confused, I'm attempting to use the gimp command line, is it no longer supported? Why am I being told to use other tools still? This is a specific attempt to use Gimp for a task. No additional software installed. If Gimp ships with a usable version of python in a reliable location, I'd be happy to leverage that, but the question is in regards to a target system with only Gimp installed, assuming it doesn't have Inkscape, ImageMagick Python or Perl. I'm asking how to use the gimp command line only. - tres.finocchi...@gmail.com On Tue, Apr 21, 2020 at 4:24 PM Liam R E Quin wrote: > On Tue, 2020-04-21 at 15:47 -0400, Tres Finocchiaro via gimp-user-list > wrote: > > > > > > I was wonder if there was a way to utilize Gimp's scripting system to > > convert an SVG to a PNG? > > Yes, from python, perl or scheme (script-fu). > > there's also batch mode add-ons such as phatch. > > You might prefer to use Inkscape for this one - it can do this in the > command-line. > > > > > > The best resource I've found is here however, attempts to run this on > > my > > machine are failing using GIMP 2.1.0. > > Hoping you mean 2.10.18 > > > I'm using MacOS to write the script, but the target platform is > > Windows. > > We are a release behind n the Mac because we don't have a Mac > maintainer right now. > > > I understand there are many other tools for performing this > > conversion (and > > I'm leveraging these tools in other parts of code) but I was hoping > > to > > write this as a fallback for this particular system. > > For the error you're getting try changing file-svg to file-svg-save > maybe. > > slave > > -- > Liam Quin - https://www.fromoldbooks.org/ > > Slave in full-time voluntary servitude > > ___ gimp-user-list mailing list List address:gimp-user-list@gnome.org List membership: https://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user-list List archives: https://mail.gnome.org/archives/gimp-user-list

Tres, Several perhaps better options are tools intended for command line use: https://www.imagemagick.org/script/download.php Or, for considerably more sophisticated image work (with correspondingly more detailed and opaque documentation) G'MIC (which also has a builtin tool for use inside GIMP usually packaged with GIMP): https://gmic.eu/download.shtml Both of these tools can be scripted.
