Announcing the Export_tikz automator, V0.3
I use OmniGraffle a lot when creating graphic ideas for my research papers. I’ve always wanted to export them to use directly in my papers but that hasn’t been possible. One method is to export them as an SVG file and then convert them via svg2tikz. While this works, sorta, there’s quite a bit of post conversion editing required and some graphic elements get quite verbose.
This motivated me to create an automator to export directly to tikz from OmniGraffle. You’ll find it in github (OmniToTikz).
The README list the caveats for what works and what doesn’t. It’s fairly bare bones. Due to the OmniGraffle 7 API, not all text formatting makes it over.
The github has both a discussion section for talking about added features and an issues section for errors that you run into.
