If you’ve used Design Space (or other design software), then you will already be familiar with many of the features in Inkscape, they just have different names! We’re focusing on the Trace Bitmap feature in this post. It offers better customization and design options when it comes to preparing SVGs for Cricut. Inkscape is a free design software that has far more features than Cricut Design Space. These files are usually JPEG, so we need to convert it into an SVG to use with the Cricut Maker, and we’re using Inkscape! FYI there’s really no difference between a JPEG and a JPG file, so don’t stress and know that this method works for both! We found and downloaded a Peppa Pig coloring page that was perfect for this coloring shirt project. Check out my tutorial video on YouTube, or follow along with the rest of this article to modify your template.1.6 DIY Peppa Pig Shirts Convert JPEG To SVG In Inkscape very, very, very big) Luckily, you can change the definition of an inch in you Inkscape template very easily. What this means right now is that an out of the box Inkscape drawing will import 9500% too big. Recently, the definition inside Cricut DS3 was changed to 1 user unit per inch. This means that by default, an out of the box Inkscape drawing would import into Design Space 33% too big. Inkscape also added a nice dialog box in which you could modify this definition if you needed to. When Inkscape released 0.92 they updated their default definition of an inch to 96 user units per inch which is now considered to be the industry standard. What this meant was that an image drawn in Inkscape was a little bit big when you imported it into DS2 (25% to be exact). Originally, Inkscape 0.91 defined an inch as 90 user units and Design Space defined an inch as 72 user units per inch. When you import then into Cricut Design Space, they are huge. You may have noticed that your SVG files are suddenly not importing the way they used to.
