Hi Cameron , I tried to download flowText.svg and resource/style/test.css，
I download above files to local pc and tried to use batik convert to jpg, It is doing ok, however， why css's font don;t work correctly? I changed font to , of course I did put that font in D:\Java\jre6\lib\fonts， but everytime textflow only convert to system default's font such as arial. Thanks in advance. http://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/batik/trunk/samples/tests/spec12/text/flowText.svg Cameron McCormack-4 wrote: > > Hi Andy. > > Andy Hall: >> I'm currently writing a small Java tool for generating SVG files from >> a set of data.
