Hi Randall, If you want to make SVG fonts ......take a look at the documentation at: http://xml.apache.org/batik/ttf2svg.html
I think you will find that instruction informative :-) If you would like to learn more about SVG Fonts....you should check out the The SVG Rec at: http://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/fonts.html SVG Fonts are really cool! ...text will look the same for all ...and the text will be searchable and accessible (zoom in and zoom out ) and the biggest deal is.......YOU CAN MAKE YOUR OWN SVG FONT!! :-) if you have any trouble converting the ttf fonts to SVG please ask for help...... We all learn by sharing what we know Robert A.
