includesvg, absurdly large image margin
up vote

I am trying to include an SVG image into my document which had always (kind of) seemed to work when using includesvg. But now I have an image that I created from a postscript file, modified in Inkscape (saved as plain svg), which is not centered at all when included using:
begin{figure}
centering
includesvg{resources/svg/an-image}
end{figure}
When I run everything through pdflatex, the left border of the image is positioned in the center of the page, most of the right part is cut off and if I add a caption it is placed way below the images lower border. It looks as if the image had a very large empty margin (which it definitely does not have in the SVG file).
Unfortunately the image itself is confidential so I cannot share it here.
What might be the cause of this? Might there be a workaround using another command than includesvg (that one has caused me unnecessary trouble before)?

Can you copy the .svg file, replace everything confidential with one large rectangle and if this also produces the error, share the svg file for us to test?

After some inspection I believe the problem probably lies with inkscape, the apparent image size after including the image withincludesvgapproximately matches the pagesize in Inkscape before resizing to the actual content's dimensions. I will just do as suggested and use another file format for now.

I believe there is little advantage in exporting a modified postscript as.svgas opposed to, say, PDF if you only want to include it in a.texdocument.

You may have invisible objects that extend outside of the SVG's viewBox (inksacpe's page). Have a look at the inkscapearea option. Possible values are
drawing/nocrop(default) : adjust SVG viewbox to fit all elements.
page/nocrop: respect SVG viewBox.
