Subject: Re: how to handle svg files when exporting orgmode to html	and	pdf?

Thomas, Suvayu, Aaron, Nick, Eric, Carsten, Phil, et al,

Hi again!

Can I re-open this thread to discuss two new issues I now experience with emacs 24.3.1 and orgmode version 8.2.1 in the handling of svg => tex => pdf ?

Here goes:

1) If the plot has text in it which contains a percent character (%), then we fail due to https://bugs.launchpad.net/inkscape/+bug/857231

2) If the :file is in a sub-directory  (for example, `:file fig/mtcars.svg`), even though both ./fig/mtcars.pdf_tex  and ./fig/mtcars.pdf are created, the reference to the .pdf in the .pdf_tex  is not interpreted relative to the subdirectory, but rather to the parent, and so the .pdf is not found.

The workaround for (1) is to not use '%' as a label on my plots.

The workaround for (2) is to not put my figures in a './fig/' subdirectory.

I suppose the fix for (1) is to get the inkscape export 'fixed' to (optionally) escape the labels, and to take the option.  Thoughts?

I suppose the fix for (2) is somewhere in the org code.  Any takers?

Or, any other fixes suggested?

Thanks!

Malcolm
