The new patch is attached to this email. Try openning the share/svgfonts.svg test file to see the rendering. I am also attaching a screenshot of the rendering.
Cool.
Since we don't have pango integration yet, I have used a little trick. I am working on the cairo-based implementation of SVGFonts rendering and I am viewing this rendering on a separate gtkWindow. Once we get pango integration (which could possibly be after the end of SoC, anyway) we can get rid of this auxiliary window.
This sounds like it's going to start becoming a major inconvenience to you before long. I admit that I haven't had any more thoughts about a good way to deal with this issue before Pango is ready, have you?
Richard.
