I'm creating a slideshow in Inkscape. There's one or more layer per slide, plus several background layers, and some special layers to be used on several slides in a row, etc.
In the past, I'd create each slide as a .png image by turning on appropriate layers and exporting an image. This is tedious and easy to make mistakes.
Is it possible to automate this? To enable the right layers and save all slides directly to a file format suitable for presenatations, such as .ppt, which I can give to anyone for display?
The solution will have to work on Linux.
Answer
Inkscape slide does pretty much what you are looking for: given a set of layers it will create a pdf from them (I would say that's even better than ppt output). How different output pages are composed can be freely configured via a configuration layer. It needs pypdf installed.
And with TeXText you can even include LaTeX text or figures. Profit!
