Text along the curves absence after convertion from svg to png using python+cairo+rsvg


I'm trying to convert SVG to PNG using Python, Cairo and librsvg. Everything is okay, except of the text typed along the curve. This text is blank on the result PNG image, although the normal horizontal text is OK.

Creating svg image with inkscape As a result png with bare curves Here is the source of my example.


Solution

  • textPath doesn't seem to be supported in librsvg, see e.g http://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?bug=577844
