Hi,

Actually I have noticed that none of my text seems to come out correctly
after conversion to png.

I have converted a few truetype fonts using batik-ttf2svg.jar and included
the resulting SVG in the defs section. When using this the text as displayed
through the Adobe viewer has the correct font, however after conversion they
do not look any different than if no font-family was specified. And in fact
they look very pixelated and weak as well.

Am I doing this incorrectly? Or do I need to install something else on my
machine? How do I get the text in my png images to looking something similar
to the SVG?

Thanks for any help

adam
