SVG Bug

jared
First of all, great job with this product! It was a dream come true when I found it. I'm a 3rd year electrical engineering student at the University of Queensland and Prince makes writing all the reports so much easier!

I believe, correct me if I'm wrong, that the SVG coordinate system should support engineering (x10^) notation. For example:
<path d="M 3,4 L 8.2e-07,434.84338 L 8.2e-07,400 Z" />


When I attempted to do this in a document rendered by Prince I get this error:
prince: internal error: command L/l: (x, y)+ required.


You may wish to implement this for completeness. I don't really need this feature, because I can obviously express the same number as 0.00000082. If you were to use a SVG image authored by someone else; however, it would take a while to work out why Prince was refusing to render it.

Thanks for reporting this issue, we will look into fixing it for a future maintenance release of Prince.
