External Fonts
Hi,
I had some problems with this a few weeks ago and thought I had it worked
out, but it appears I don't. I'm trying to get external font files to work
properly in my SVG documents.
I converted a TTF font to SVG format using batik-ttf2svg. The resulting file
is here:
http://clients.exobitnetworks.com/ipi/american.svg
And I have a .svg file that attempts to render some text in that font. The
file is here:
http://clients.exobitnetworks.com/ipi/fonts.svg
I've tried viewing in Firefox, IE, and Squiggle to no avail.
I used http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/fonts.html as a reference for accessing the
external font file from my svg document, so I would think that's correct.
This is for a project that's way past deadline and I've been puzzling over
it for a while now, so any help would be much appreciated.
Thanks,
Rob

Hi Rob,
I Suspect FireFox doesn't support SVG Fonts at all yet.
But with the SVG Font in the Defs section it should work in ASV.

Hm, I tried putting the font definition in the <defs> section of the SVG
document itself, but the results are the same. Squiggle views it ok, but no
go on firefox. Thanks for the suggestion, though.

I remember a problem from a long time ago where you could not reference an
element inside another SVG file in the Adobe SVG Viewer plugin. I don't know
if the same issue applies to fonts.

I remember a problem from a long time ago where you could not reference
an element inside another SVG file in the Adobe SVG Viewer plugin. I
don't know if the same issue applies to fonts.

Small revision - it appears to work in squiggle now, but not in Firefox or
IE. Do these browsers not support external svg fonts?
