Printing the posters

[Robert M. Albrecht]

Hi,

I wanted to print the posters from 
http://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Artwork/MarketingCollateral

But the company can`t process the svg-graphic-files. I tried to produce 
some pdfs, but they are always corrupted. I used printing to cups and 
the Inkscape integrated pdf-export, both busted the files.

Does anyone have some printable files (in A1) ? PDFs with embedded 
fonts, Postscript, ...

If they use Mac or Windows vectors will not work i used png
and get great results for A1.

Use inkscape to export the posters to PNG.  I was then able to get the PNG
files printed with no problems.

Hi,

I tried, does not work. The background is distorted.

Also I want to print them in A1, so bitmap files would be really large.

The background is distorted for PNG export? That's impossible... can you 
please show the bug?

Since the PDF export does not support all the features, you will have 
either to find a print shop that accept SVG (Adobe Illustrator and Corel 
Draw are in fact able to open SVG files) or live with large raster files 
(maybe convert the PNG to a lossy format, either JPEG or compressed TIFF 
- do this with GIMP).
