Inkscape - How To Add Downloaded Templates On Linux Mint


"This folder contains the templates for new documents created in
Inkscape. You will normally see them listed in the File > New
submenu. A template may store any document-specific settings (such as
initial zoom and view, paper size, background and borders, metadata,
window geometry, grid and guide settings, export hints) as well as any
objects. To add a new template, simply save or copy it to this folder;
nothing else is required.

Procedural templates are located in the adjacent 'extension'
directory. By convention, they begin with 'empty'.


Internationalization:

Files of the mask default.*.svg are the translations of default.svg
template into different languages. The default.svg itself is in
English. These translations contain a translated name of the default
layer and possibly different canvas size. Each language version of
Inkscape will only use one of these templates and ignore the rest.

These files are internationalized the same way as
share/filters/filters/svg The i18n.py script called from the makefile
will extract strings from the *.svg files into a *.svg.h
file. Intltool is then able to extracts these strings just like from
normal .h files.

The internationalized default files (A4 only) are created using the
PERL script "create_defaults.pl" and are based on default.svg. To add
a new language, add it to the database at the beginning of the PERL
script. (You'll also need to edit Makefile.am and the appropriate 'po'
file)."

I found the folder containing the standard templates, but it won't allow me to add any--attached is a picture of where I'm at. Any and all help is appreciated enormously.

-Kindest regards

An additional observation:

I tried clicking and dragging,
as well as opening the template with INKSCAPE,
then attempting to save manually;
both give me the relatively similar error screen.

Maybe they're only suitable for Windows Inkscape?

-Thanks again
