Hi Helder,
Apologies with using the term 'squashed', I wasn't sure what term to use to
describe
it(lack of graphics knowledge!). But your fix worked and as you say it is a
text/formatting
alignment issue.
Thanks again,
Chris.

I'm not sure what you mean with "squashed". Can you elaborate a bit
[1]? Also, you have attached a screenshot of how it displays
unexpectedly but not a screenshot of how you expected it to be. In the
absence of the resulting SVG file, this triggers the "guys, guess
what's happening!" mode. ;-)
Nevertheless, my quick "guess" is that no particular "squashing" is
happening: I can only see text overflowing other graphics content. If
so, then you are simply suffering from a common issue with graphics in
general which is text formatting/alignment. Note that if you don't
specify font and font-size property, the implementation will use a
fallback font family/font size which will then vary and may yield such
unexpected results. As a quick fix attempt, set a default font
behavior by setting the "font-family" (remember to include a generic
font family [2]) and "font-size" attributes in the root "svg" element,
as in:

Hope this helps,
