[Rd] point size in svg

[Spencer Graves]

Hello, All:


       I'm unable to control the font size in plots to svg.  Consider 
the following:


svg('cex-svg.svg')
cex. <- 5
plot(1:2, cex.axis=cex.)
text(1:2, 1:2, c('as', 'DF'),
           cex=cex.)
dev.off()


       When I open this in Gimp 2.10.4, the font size is tiny.  I also 
tried:


svg('cex-svg.svg', width=15, height=15, pointsize=24)
cex. <- 5
plot(1:2, cex.axis=cex.)
text(1:2, 1:2, c('as', 'DF'),
           cex=cex.)
dev.off()


       What do I do to control the font size in svg?


       Thanks,
       Spencer Graves
