Summary description: How to include an SVG image in LaTeX using Inkscape
License type: lppl

Announcement text: 
----------------------------------------------------------------------
This work demonstrates the use of SVG images in LaTeX documents.
Using the PDF + LaTeX output option of Inkscape 0.48, it is
possible to include SVG images in LaTeX and have LaTeX
typeset the text. This results in the same text style in the
images as in the text. Moreover, LaTeX commands can be used
in the image's text, such as math or references.
The document also describes how to automate the conversion
from SVG to PDF+LaTeX using Inkscape.
