Hi,
I'd like to know how I can use Inkscape for SVG thumbnailing on my Windows
7 OS with a MediaWiki installation. Inkscape's files are located at
C:\Program Files (x86)\Inkscape. My efforts to date (mostly based on
Manual:$wgSVGConverters and other MediaWiki manual pages) have failed.
Currently my LocalSettings.php file's SVG-related settings are:
# Image Converter
$wgSVGConverter = 'Inkscape';
$wgSVGConverters = array(
'Inkscape' => '"$path/inkscape.exe" -z -w $width -f $input
-e $output',
);
# Image converter path
$wgSVGConverterPath = '/Program Files (x86)/Inkscape';
This gives the following error (which appears in the thumbnail's place):
Error creating thumbnail: '""' is
not recognized as an internal or
external command,
operable program or batch file.
The reason I'd like Inkscape as my SVG thumbnailer in particular is because
I sometimes use SVGs that are only correctly rendered by Inkscape (I know
that Wikia's thumbnailer (whatever it might be) frequently makes rendering
errors with these SVGs, e.g., see
http://health-and-medicine.wikia.com/wiki/File:Symptoms_of_Hodgkin_lymphoma…
and all the black spots that appear in it.
Thanks for your time,
Brenton
