I tried InkScape & XPS method, but it doesn't give me correct XAML.

Can anyone please convert this SVG to WinRT compatible XAML ?

@Xyroid - it doesn't matter what your rep on SO is, your post is still worded as "do my work for me". With that rep, you should know the etiquette of SO already. And Tim answered properly, by telling you how to do it, and not doing it for you like you asked. - Jesse Chisholm

Take a look at this and see if it works: https://gist.github.com/timheuer/6443390

Method (yes, superhack):

  • Use Inkscape to save as PDF
  • Rename the Filename extension from PDF to AI
  • Use Expression Design to open AI document
  • Export to Silverlight Canvas

Using Inkscape 0.91 it's possible to open an SVG file and directly save as XAML.

Select Microsoft XAML file as the file type:

I'm not able to comment on the related answer, but I found it even easier to just open the SVG in Inkscape, copy and then paste it on Expression Design. Then select Copy to XAML (or Ctrl + Shift + C).
