Re: fop not handling svn rotated text on linux
Hi Rob, Could you upload the PDF in question (if it's not too big) and it'll give us a better idea of what the issue is.

So perhaps look at your PDF using Adobe PDF viewer on Linux?

Re: fop not handling svn rotated text on linux
Medhi, I've loaded acroread on the shared linux box and the pdf looks fine. Do you still want the pdf? Or does this become an Evince issue?

Re: fop not handling SVG rotated text on linux
I would really appreciate someone editing the Subject for the archives: s/svn/svg/g But apparently enough people saw through my type. Thanks gang.
