Part of the logo is in fact curves, and does not vary, regardless of the
operating system, but two parts of the overall logo (used in differing
circumstances) are text, and one of those parts DOES change due to the
kerning not present in Linux. As for transforming text to curves, I'll
have to see if Inkscape can do that. Thanks for the suggestion.

The end result found is that Inkscape does not have the ability to embed
fonts into a .svg file. Ubuntu Linux does not respond to fonts as
Windows does. I've had to resign myself to the fact that a logo
designed to work well in darktable on Windows must be redesigned to work
tolerably well in darktable under Ubuntu Linux, and the fact that the
two will not look identical under both operating systems due to Windows'
ability to kern fonts as needed while Linux seems to lack the kerning
ability.
Can't you transform a text to curves? in that case, you'd freeze the
lettershape and the kerning, while keeping scalability.
I know that fonts are not supposed to scale linearly, so unless your logo is
pure text, scaling would change the visible aspect in any case.
