    Hello everyone, I'm new to Inkscape.

    I was doing pictures on it (svg format). After finishing the first one, I saved it and then upload it on my word file and my pic appears perfectly.

    But for the second one, I did exactly the same after I finished my changes, but then, when I open it on my Word, I just have a white pic, with nothing on it. But when I open it on any kinf of browser, I see my pic normally. Do you have an idea of what is the problem ?

    Thank you in advance.

    Recent versions of MS Word (since 2019) shouldΒ be able to import svg images. For earlier versions you should save a copy of your image as emf format. It's possible that Word rejects some Inkscape svg features. Try [File > Save a Copy...] and choose [Plain SVG] as the file type.

    I try with the emf format and it worked. Thank you !

    Also - try to save as "Plain SVG" and see if that works better
