I've tested this approach with Firefox 2.0 and rsvg 2.16. The text
alignment is actually much better since the text layout is fully under
the control of matplotlib. This has been checked into SVN, and can be
used by setting the rcparam "svg.embed_char_paths" to True.
The following are my usua
Actually, it just occurred to me that you could use 'defs' and 'use' to
define characters as paths and reuse them. And that's something that

searching and copying as text etc.), but if it

Has anyone looked into embedding fonts in SVG files? That might
alleviate some of the installation problems that were recently mentioned
on the matplotlib-users list.

If there are no plans under way, I may have a crack at it, since I'm
