Hello,

I have a couple of technical drawings which I convert from Microstation (.dwg) format to SVG using some third party software and from SVG to PDF using Inkscape.

The SVG contains the text on the drawing in correct form, but the PDF has text garbled. It is displayed ok, but the text selection for copy-pasting is corrupt. It is reproducable and the result is constant for every run. If I use the --export-latex option than the .tex file contains the text in correct form again.

Is this a known issue? I cannot find it in the bug database.

I'm running Inkscape 0.48.4 and also tried the latest development binaries from your site. I reproduced this on Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise and Windows 7 Professional. Both 64 bits.

I can provide a sample drawing, but need to anonymize it first.

Regards, Ronald.
