After some experimentation, it seems that ASV needs a missing-glyph element inside the font one. After I added one, it works fine, but of course (?), the glyphs E, L and O are rendered with the missing-glyph, not with the sans-serif font. I don't know the spec. enough to say if this is the required behavior or not. -- Philippe Lhoste -- (near) Paris -- France -- http://Phi.Lho.free.fr -- For servers mangling my From and Reply-To fields, -- please send private answers to PhiLho(a)GMX.net -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- -- ----- To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click "edit my membership" ---- Yahoo!
