This extension converts Inkscape paths to extruded polygons in OpenSCAD. Before using, some objects must firat be converted to paths with the "Path > Object to Path" menu item.
Inkscape's units of pixels are converted to millimeters using the SVG standard's definition of 96 px = 1 inch = 25.4 mm. (Before inkscape 0.92 the standard was 90 px per inch, Adobe products often use 75 px per inch)
