Hello,
Is there a preferred method for including custom fonts (say for example Google fonts) in SVGs to allow them to convert to PDFs on the server with the correct rendering of the font?
I realise convert to curves before it hits the svg/pdf converter is probably the best way to go - but I don’t think this is achievable as loading the font on the hosting server (node.js - where the editing occurs) doesn’t look like an option - so is there a way of referencing or embedding the font in the SVG itself?
What’s your recommendation here? Like @import in defs/style, or embed font in base64, has any testing been done and solutions/ best practises found?

Currently, Aspose.PDF cloud API does not support custom(non-standard) fonts in SVG to PDF conversion. Please share your input SVG and current PDF along with the expected PDF. We will investigate the issue and will suggest a solution accordingly.

curl -X PUT "https://api.aspose.cloud/v3.0/pdf/sample_import.pdf/create/svg?srcPath=Temp%2Fsample_import.svg&dstFolder=Temp"

Hello!
Thanks loads for getting back to me… I’ve two SVG’s that will render fonts correctly albeit in the browser, one is via an @import tag, the other embeds the font in the SVG itself.
Both approaches work in the browser, neither work in conversion, all should be in the zip file.

Any ideas/thoughts/workarounds?!
Thank you so much for looking at this for me.
