Thanks for pointing out that EPS import does not work on this 2011 0222. Thats the one thing I really need. Suppose I have to go back to my 2008 110 build, where EPS import works. By the way, those builds are easy to install. Just download, install and start X11.

I’ve been checking out the SVG development roadmap and I thought it was only developed on the SVG 1.1 specification… But after digging in the W3C website I found an old 1.0 draft that already included it. Thank you once again—Il’ll correct the date to the oficial 2001 release.

By the way, I’m looking at graphite. Although the development started in 1997, the first release date I’m seeing is 2003. Do you know if this is true?
Cheers,
P

Hi Chris!
Thanks for the input, I didn’t know about this one, although I’ve been following SIL/Victor Gaultney’s work for a while now.
At first glance it seems that it is only a rendering engine, but it also has “Graphite fonts”.

Is it already in use?

I’ll “let it brew on the graphic” while reading more about this format/framework and update it soon if all checks out!

Once again, thanks for the tip. Great reference.
Cheers,
Pedro

Also, you seem to be missing SIL Graphite. The earliest reference I can find dates to November 2001.

Where does 2003 come from, for SVG fonts? The W3C Recommendation for SVG 1.0 dates to 04 September 2001

I followed the steps in http://www.tumblr.com/tagged/design+resources
It took me some time to make a link to about 10 libraries, but it worked.
Thanks for your tips!
