You do not need inkscape to run SCAL. With SCAL you can cut and TTF font or dingbat...You only need inkscape to make your own svg files...Learn how to use SCAL first then when your comfortable go play with inkscape...That way you won't get overwhelmed.

Inkscape is a great program and you do not need it to use SCAL. It is a vector-based editor (not bitmap editor like the programs for editing photos) which will edit line drawings. With it, you can create anything to cut in SCAL. Yes, it has a learning curve but I find it to be well worth the effort...it allows me to actually "cut what I want."

here's a link to some things I've made using Inkscape. You can't make these in SCAL alone.
