Install Inkscape, following the instructions of the software. Note: in Inkscape, you can always return to the front using the arrows at the top left of your window. In addition, do not hesitate to consult the Graphic Lab if you have difficulties. Open Inkscape. Select File → Open then open your image.
As Inkscape is open-source software, it is maintained for a variety of platforms including Linux, Mac OS X, [3] BSD and Windows.For Linux systems, it is most likely that it will be in a list of available packages from your package manager (e.g. apt-get, yum or similar).
However, Inkscape can help you to extract the photo. You can tell that a graphic is a raster image in Inkscape 0.47 if after selecting the graphic and choosing Object > Ungroup, you cannot select individual elements. Also, when you click the graphic Inkscape's status bar will show "Image" and its context menu will have an Image Properties item.
One of the problems with Inkscape is that it saves its images as its own special version of SVG. Unfortunately there seems to be no way to make the program use standard SVG as the default mode for saving, so it is necessary to select the standard version of SVG each time a file is saved.
Inkscape is a free and open-source vector graphics editor for traditional Unix-compatible systems such as GNU/Linux, BSD derivatives and Illumos, as well as Windows and macOS. It offers a rich set of features and is widely used for both artistic and technical illustrations such as cartoons, clip art, logos, typography, diagramming and flowcharting.
Right-click on the graph and select "Export" → "Encapsulated Postscript" from the menu which appears. Choose a file name to save the graph as. In Inkscape, import the graph using "File" → "Import...". After importing, select "File" → "Document Properties..." and click "Fit page to selection". Save the SVG file and upload it.
The workarounds that one can employ are either not to use flowed text (by using the text tool without creating a text field), or convert the text to normal text (by Text-editor or sed-command, or with Inkscape-GUI or with a Inkscape-batch), but to stroke the text using "object to path", since path-text is not recommended and increases file-size.
Draw the structure in your molecule editor, and save it as a Windows Metafile (.wmf), Enhanced Metafile (.emf), or Encapsulated Postscript (.eps). Open the saved file in Inkscape. Resize the picture about 400%, then click to File→Document Properties→Fit page to selection. Select the molecule and click Path→Object to path.
