(Get the code!)
Sorry, should have thought about that: Windows 7 with the latest stable version of Inkscape 0.48.5 r10040.
Sample file attached. These element have been picked from an .ai file after opening it in Inkscape. The "Arrows" file is what remained after deleting most of the elements in the "How to images" file.
For example, when I delete all elements except the arrows, the file size remains at 3.31MB
For example, when I delete all elements except the square background, the file size remains at 3.29MB
When creating a new file with the same square background (same size and color, the virgin file is only 1.70KB.
However, the problem seems to be significantly worse when dealing larger .png elements. (Have not used other file types.)
I am using the import function provided in Inkscape's menu (File > Import) and the element is embedded (not linked).
