#2> Inkscape documents can now hold multiple pages, which are managed by the new Page tool
Finally!
Re: Inkscape 1.2 released
#3Haven’t downloaded this release yet, but as a longtime user of Inkscape the ability to add and manage pages sounds like an amazing addition to the application. Previously, I would approximate managing multiple pages by hiding and showing layers, then exporting each page manually. Needless to say, I am excited to leave that workflow behind!

Another cool thing that was on the betas is that the export dialog has a 'batch' tab, where you can export all or a selection of the pages or layers in your document.

#5I was using Scribus for multi page documents but, as a fully fledged DTP solution, it is often overkill, I'm glad I can now use Inkscape for smaller jobs, thanks to the new Page tool.
Inkscape is truly the Swiss Army knife of the open source graphics ecosystem, I use it more often than any other application.

#6I am a daily user of Inkscape and I love this software. Thank you for that version, snapping and multiple pages are incredibly helpful. Earlier in the day, I was about to download a suspicious add-on to batch export images, what a pleasure to find this option in this new version!

#7Big, big fan of Inkscape. The latest release was horribly broken on my M1 Mac (every keyboard shortcut didn’t need the modifier so typing a Z was Undo, etc) I’ll download this and try it out.

Yeah hopefully a multi page Illustrator file opens as multiple pages now. That would be huge.

#9I want to like Inkscape, but the macOS version seems sluggish and buggy.

#10Great to see the project moving along, but it's been a persistent feeling of mine that FOSS is starting to get left behind in the dust. The design space has been very rapidly moving towards online, live collaboration tools like Figma, Sketch, Adobe XD, etc and FOSS just has no answer for this market. Even a lot of the big name proprietary tools are finding themselves becoming rapidly obsolete in a world where people want to IM a link and just have it reflect the latest version rather than attaching files back and forth.
It's not even clear how FOSS would even work in this market or how it would benefit the user when it would be hosted all on someone else's server with self hosting diminishing the ease of collaboration.
