I just noticed that the problem only occurs if a $ (as needed for latex math) is
used in the format string, e.g. $%.2f^\circ$. If I remove the $ signs the text
IS exported with text-tags.
Does the $ sign have a special meaning here in PV?

Many thanks for fixing the Label exporter issue. It does work with 4.1 to
get the text exported into e.g. an SVG. However, the text is always rendered
as paths (always consists of triangles). Is it also possible to have the
text being exported as actual text-fields (like e.g. gnuplot does) that can
be edited with the text-tool in e.g. inkscape?
There is an checkbox in the export options "Render text as paths" (see
http://www.kitware.com/blog/home/post/508 ). It's enabled by default
for portability, but disabling this option should do what you need.
Exporting selection labels as text ("Render text as paths" not checked) works
for me with PV-4.1.0. However, PV-4.1.0 does not allow one to specify the
formatting, like printf formats as: %.2f\circ.
PV-4.3.1 does allow one to specify the formatting, however whether "Render text
as paths" is checked or not, the output SVG does not contain any text-tags any
more, that would allow editing in inkscape or text setting by latex.
Did Your changes get lost/reverted?
I tried to find the commits that made it possible for PV-4.1 but could not find
them in the git logs:
http://www.paraview.org/gitweb?p=ParaView.git&a=search&h=HEAD&st=commit&s=gl2ps
It seems the bug number 14231 was never mentioned in the commit messages.
What is the general procedure to find the right commits in such a case?
Many thanks for looking into this.
Roman
