String width with any font and size

[jc...@grenat.com]

Hi,

I develop a class which creates some svg nodes in a Document. Some of them
are "svg:text".
The attribute style is set with any font and size.
I need to know if there is a mean to get the width of a string for
positionning it correctly.
Of course the width must  care of  font and size.

Is it possible to get that information programmatically and how ?
Have you got some example ?

Thanks in advance.
