InklingReader

This project is an attempt to create a GNU/Linux-friendly version of the Wacom Inkling SketchManager. Instead of integrating with proprietary programs, this program aims to be compatible with free software alternatives like Inkscape.

The program can:

  • Display WPI files
  • Merge WPI files
  • Export to Inkscape SVG (preserving layers), PDF and PNG
  • Automatically use different colors when the "new layer" is pressed multiple times.

Dependencies

Make sure you have the following libraries, development packages and build tools installed:

  • GCC
  • Make
  • Gtk+-3.0, GLib-2.0 and Cairo
  • Librsvg-2.0

Tested distributions

The software is built and tested on:

  • Debian 7.3, 7.4
  • CrunchBang Linux 11
  • Fedora 20
  • Ubuntu 12.04, 13.04

Since the program uses only widely available libraries it should run OK on almost every GNU/Linux distribution. If you have problems getting it to work on yours, let us know.
