Hi Geeta, Well you have lots of options and I don't know what tools you have available (like can you construct the text and get it's bbox from the SVGDOM? or are you just spewing out SVG from a totally non graphical service somewhere) but the simplist solution to your problem is probably to use the 'dy' attribute on text. I think if you just stick 'dy="-.4em"' on your text elements (even if it's on a path, you can also rotate the text with a simple transform) they will be fairly well centered (you can play with the 'em' value to improve the centering if it's off a bit). --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
