convert inkscape layers to latex beamer slides
This script takes an Inkscape .svg as input, and generates pdf files corresponding to each of the layers and a LaTeX file that uses the LaTeX Beamer commands to incrementally overlay them. It will export the layers into a directory with the same basename as the .svg file. The layers will be exported in pdf format to preserve transparency.
A python version of https://github.com/jbohren/beamerscape
This script requires the following libraries:
- argparse
- subprocess
- xml
- pathlib
Most of these are installed by default (at least under linux). If in doubt install conda.
Download the script, and call it as python beamerscape.py or set it as executable and copy to /usr/local/bin/
