Hi,
Since the new version Chartdirector (which we use to draw the charts in our reports) has the ability to output SVG files I wanted to try this. But while trying this I found some issues with the rendering of svg's in prince ..
If I try to use the following (generated) svg file in prince
http://eric.nitrate.nl/prince/test_svg.svg
I get this:
http://eric.nitrate.nl/prince/test_svg.pdf
As you can see the chart looks fine but the text doesn't. It is supposed to be verdana (which is most certainly available on my systems, since we use it everywhere in the reports) but it looks like a different font.
Also the allignment is way off (it looks good in both firefox and inkscape).
The generated pdf is from prince 6, but the beta of prince 7 looks excatly the same.
Is this a prince bug? Or is there something in the svg what is not supported by prince? (I don't get any warnings on the commandline)
Kind regards,
