Hi,
I have been playing with pstoedit and inkscape in order to convert
xcircuit files to svg to use in a desktop wiki called zim. zim text
widget supports svg graphics but not ps and I would like to have nice
scalable graphics instead of semi-blurry png from imagemagick.

Problem is that the svg from pstoedit give me a full a4 page with lots
of empty space around the drawing. Imagemagick manage to extract the
borders to create a compact graphics-only image. When trying to
massage the svg file in Inkscape I have problem fitting the graphics
as Inkscape seems to like predefined page sizes.

Just want to know if anybody on the list has had better luck and want to share.
