Inkscape does not open .svg file correctly

1

I have an svg file that I have created using draw.io on Chrome. When I open it in InkScape the blocks inside the .svg file that have teext in them are not shown correctly and it just shows [object].

I want to open the .svg in Inkscape and save it as an .emf so I can insert it into a Word document.

Why isn't the .svg file shown correctly in Inkscape? And, is there an easier way to insert the files created by draw.io in a Word document? I can export it to .png or .jpg but the quality is not good.

Has this been happened with more than one file or just that one? – Alex – 2013-06-07T19:51:06.810

Is it possible the svg is using a font that inkscape doesn't have available? – jwygralak67 – 2014-01-02T21:43:23.610

It doesn't work because draw.io SVG has text set with foreignObject which Inkscape doesn't support.
