The stroke-dasharray attribute could be an easy solution here: <?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?> <svg width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 600 800" version="1.1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg"> <rect x="0" y="0" width="150" height="450" stroke-width="2" stroke="black" fill="none" stroke-dasharray="280 50 2000" /> <text x="130" y="160">D</text> </svg>
Works in Firefox, Opera, Chromium, IE9, Batik, SVGSalamander and Inkscape. librsvg is doing strange things (like so often).
