Is there anyone who has tutorials up about making the switch from .46 to .47 much like the switch to SCAL 2.010 tutes?
Windows XP, SCAL 2.102, Inkscape 0.47

The only change that I can think of is how Ink handles font conversions. When you use Path/Object to path in Ink 0.47 it will put each letter in its own Path and use Group to keep the letters together. You will need to Ungroup the text before you use any Path operations.

Another option if you don't want/need the letters separate is to select the text and use Path/Union. This will convert the font without adding the Object/Group. HTH
