Usually it works (sometimes I use http://www.openclipart.org/ to get some pictures that can serve as a starting point for books illustrations). But I’ve just stumbled upon some pictures that Intaglio does not like. E.g.: Openclipart - Clipping Culture (note, that xmas will be only on 7th of January here in Russia ;)). May be the gradient are to blame, or something else. Anyways, I had to use PNG of this picture, it was not that important in this particular case.

May be it would be more reasonable not to discard such a pictures altogether, but ignore some offending elements or filters (or rather warn about them) and import the rest to make it usable? Thanks for reminding me of Inkscape, I’ll try to use it to clean-up pictures to be able to import in Intaglio.

It´s a Inkscape SVG using some filters. I guess that´s the reason it won´t open in Intaglio as Inkscape will.
