Re: [Gimp-user] SVG to PNG using a script

[Tres Finocchiaro <tres finocchiaro gmail com>]

A one-liner using Gimp and no other tools:

./gimp -i -b '(let* ((image (car (file-svg-load RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
*"input.svg"* "" *72* (- 0 *400*) (- 0 *600*) 0))) (drawable (car
(gimp-image-get-active-layer image)))) (plug-in-autocrop RUN-NONINTERACTIVE
image drawable) (gimp-file-save RUN-NONINTERACTIVE image drawable
*"output.png"* *"output.png"*) (gimp-image-delete image))' -b '(gimp-quit
0)'

Where:

   - "input.svg" is the source file name
   - 72 is the output resolution in pixels-per-inch
   - 400 is the output width
   - 600 is the output height
   - "output.png" is the output file name
