Make incredible figures for LaTeX with Inkscape (pdf_tex format)
Use Inkscape's LaTeX and PDF export feature (the pdf_tex format) to create figures that have a size, font family, and font size consistent with the rest of your document. You can also use this feature to add references, citations, or math within a figure. This will help your figures look more professional and intentional than images created or edited in other software, such as spreadsheets.
