- FontMetrics is implemented using the JDK fonts rather than the SVG fonts.
- The TestColorMap is not properly exported (linewidth or insets) to SVG. The surrounding boxes
are too thick.
- The setTextPosition call is implemented, but viewers do not yet support "alignment-baseline"
- The symbol font is not displayed
- The zapfdingbats font is displayed as Helvetica
- Compressed svg files (svgz) were never tested, since no viewers accepts them.
- drawString(attributedCharIter) is unimplemented.
- The tagstring <v> tag is ignored. This should be implemented using <glyphRun> which is not supported yet in
SVGView 3.0
@status Stable.
