The image has a lot of bezier curves and importing the png into the
Drawing Sheet Editor does not look as nice as importing the svg in
the Footprint Editor to the silk. An extremely high resolution png
would likely work, but I feel silly using a 10MB png for what is a
12.6kB svg.

about the png is not desirable? Perhaps converting with a higher
output resolution will provide better results.

Hello All,
I would like to know if anyone has an idea on how to import a
vector graphics file (specifically svg in this case) into the
drawing sheet editor? Or otherwise place an svg on a drawing
sheet?
There is an Add Bitmap feature, but that does not support svg (I
have already used this with a png version of the image, but I am
unhappy with the result). Likewise, the Image Converter does not
support svg either.
There is an Import Vector Graphics File in the Footprint Editor
and that seems to work well. I can always place a footprint on
the title block containing the image but I would rather not.
Am I missing something obvious? Or is this not currently
implemented? I am using KiCad version 7.99.0.1401, if it is
relevant. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
