Hi,

I am trying to do some graphics with text in SVG for a website, but the text is not being rendered by any browser.

I am using Kubuntu 10.04, with firefox and google chrome. Both browsers shows the graphics, but not the text. I have installed msttcorefonts and selected some microsoft font for the text in the svg, hoping that this was the problem, but it was not. Any help?

Thanks in advance,

Bruno

Sorry guys...

Probably because the fonts also have to be installed on the PC that runs the web browser.

Grobe, it's because most browsers don't completely support SVG. Many do a pretty good job, IE has only just begun to support/display SVG, but even the best browser for SVG can't display every image.

In this case (text not rendered, or rendered as black rectangle) it's more likely due to Inkscape using a non-compliant SVG structure for 'Flowed text' (not part of the current SVG 1.1 specification, and thus not supported by other SVG renderers) - see Inkscape FAQ "What about flowed text?".

Note: affects 'Flowed text' as well as 'Text flowed into frame'

Just a shot in the air: Have you tried to set Stroke Width to 0 tor the text?
