Struggling with embedded SVGs

  • I have a lot of SVGs embedded into my posts. I don’t really expect this plugin to be able to render them within the PDFs it generates, but I’d like it just to ignore the SVG or put a little icon in its place without taking up too much space, and then go on to render the text as normal.

    The problem is that the plugin just fails to render a PDF at all if the post contains an embedded SVG, declaring instead:

    TCPDF ERROR: SVG Error: XML_ERR_NAME_REQUIRED at line 1

    Good point about the alignment not being necessary for SVGs! For kicks, try setting the alignment to center and see if the text flows as you might expect. I should probably add a fallback option in the admin UI for where to place the text when there is no alignment present for the image.

    Glad we had this chat!

    Adding an alignment attribute doesn’t seem to make a difference, which makes sense because the full size of my SVGs is larger than the space they have when embedded in a post.

    You realize, though, that when you have finished perfecting the rendering of PDFs, I will be asking you to do the same for ePubs and mobi files!

    Latest development drop should fix the issue with the header always being suppressed, and the option not sticking.

    I haven’t yet added a default alignment for the placeholder text, but I’ve got a note to do that.

    Cheers
