    Hello everyone,ย 

    I'm new here and I hope someone will be able to help me.

    I have my own company logo which I would like to use for labelling my products, but I'm really struggling onย this. I've tried a few different methods I've been using so far and none seems to work. Please see attachments.ย 

    I would like to add a black stroke to see how it will look like for example.ย 

    Apologies if this is a dumb question, but I'm still learning to use this graphic editor.

    Is anyone able to help me with this please?

    ย 

    Many thanksย 

    Devid

    My approach:

    • Open the .ai file in Inkscape
    • Use Extensions>Arrange>Deep ungroup
    • Remove all clips: Select all, Object>Clip>Remove (Screen will fill with black objects)
    • Select one black object, then Edit>Select Same>Fill color (to select only the black objects), the delete key to remove all black objects

    Remaining should be the white and blue path objects, and the shadows which are bitmap images.
