page size, font size, rescaling
I would like to be able to resize my image without changing the font size of text. I also have a related question about changing the page size. The image is entirely based on vector graphics--no bitmaps.
I created graphs with graphviz and combined them with svg_stack (http://
Does the text get shrunk, or does the 14pt still control the size? The output was still legible and the text was good-sized; I don't think it could be around the 7pt the shrink seems to suggest. So I wonder what size comes out on the page in this situation.
If the text does get shrunk from the overall resize, is there a way to retain the original size? I realize this might result in text appearing outside of ovals that originally contained the text entirely. It may be relevant that the SVG specifies the font size for each piece of text rather than using a global setting.
This leads to my second question about page size. I tried changing the dpi setting in export, but when I saved as pdf the document had exactly the same dimensions as before (with the default 90dpi). Why doesn't changing the dpi change the dimensions of the final output?
As it was I used the resize page to drrawing or selection option in document properties to change the page size.
It would be nice if this material were better documented; I had to hunt around to come up with the select all/scale/fit page sequence.
Thanks.
