It shouldn't? Why not?

Sure, it looks ok I guess, but @font-face is not supported in Opera so  
that font is replaced by a default font. And if your target audience  
doesn't have the correct fonts installed it will look slightly different.

If you want a custom font I suggest making an SVGFont and to remove  
@font-face. You can use a <font-face-uri> element to reference an external  
svgfont, or you can include it in the same svg file that uses it.

FF doesn't support @font-face either AFAIK.
