--- Comment #4 from Eduard Braun <[email protected]> --- You can't argue that we didn't need PDF or PS export because we already had PNG export. PDF/PS is vector based, PNG is rasterized. Sure, all these things *work* with PNG, but do you *want* to do them with PNG? If you've got a vector source at hand, you should use it. It provides much better quality while maintaining a substantially smaller file size. A further example (I consider my reasons above still valid) where PDF/PS export would come in handy is LaTeX. The newer pdftex compiler accepts PDFs natively, the older latex compiler requires PS/EPS. They're both not able to handle SVG, latex can't even handle PNG. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. You are the assignee for the bug.
