This work demonstrates the use of SVG images in LaTeX documents.
Using the PDF + LaTeX output option of Inkscape 0.48, it is possible
to include SVG images in LaTeX and have LaTeX typeset the text. This
results in the same text style in the images as in the text. Moreover,
LaTeX commands can be used in the image's text, such as math or
references.
The document also describes how to automate the conversion from SVG to
PDF+LaTeX using Inkscape.

svg-inkscape – How to in­clude an SVG im­age in LaTeX us­ing Inkscape

The doc­u­ment demon­strates the use of SVG im­ages in LaTeX doc­u­ments. Us­ing the “PDF+LaTeX out­put” op­tion of Inkscape, it is pos­si­ble to in­clude SVG in doc­u­ments, in which LaTeX type­sets the text. This re­sults in uni­form text style through­out the doc­u­ment, in­clud­ing text in im­ages; more­over, LaTeX com­mands may be used in the im­age’s text, pro­vid­ing such things as math­e­mat­ics and ref­er­ences.
The doc­u­ment also de­scribes how to au­to­mate the con­ver­sion from SVG to PDF+LaTeX us­ing Inkscape.
