Vincent, Bernard,
Actually, I get mostly junk on my machine (Solaris), most likely this is due to platform font differences. Bernard, I would strongly recomend that you write a small SVG font that includes just the box chars and spaces. Then use that for your diagrams. This should ensure reproducability of the boxes on all platforms (of course assuming there is supposed to be text in the boxes you might have other issues with mixing fonts). Also I would strongly suggest that you use one text element with embedded tspans, as this helped to reduce the vertical spaces on my platform, it also makes it possible to select the whole lot at once for cut and paste: <text x="0" y="9" xml:space="preserve" > <!-- First line of text --> <tspan x="0" dy="1em"> <!--- Second line of text --> </tspan> <tspan x="0" dy="1em"> <!--- Third line of text --> </tspan> <!-- ... --> </text> This way the dy offset will be taken from the font that is actually used, where as you had hardcoded '9' based on your font-size being 8. The '9' I presume was selected by trial an error (I would have expected '8'). >>>>> "VH" == Vincent Hardy <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> writes: VH> Bernard, Which version for Batik are you using?
