The idea is the following: 1. You check org-persist cache if the .pdf file is already available for a given svg 2. If yes, we are done 3. If not, you generate the .pdf file in temporary directory (see `make-temp-file') 4. You write the generated pdf to cache (see commentary in org-persist.el for examples) > Note: as asked in an earlier comment, rsvg-convert can be used instead of > inkscape.

I think that rather than inventing something new, we can reuse the existing semantics of `org-latex-pdf-process' and `org-compile-file'. -- Ihor Radchenko // yantar92, Org mode maintainer, Learn more about Org mode at <https://orgmode.org/>.
