[Fontforge-devel] Bug: SVG export does not export GSUB data

[Santhosh T. <san...@gm...>]

Version:        20110222-1 Debian
Description:  Opened a TTF font for
Malayalam(http://mirror.veriportal.com/savannah/smc/fonts/malayalam-fonts-4.4/Meera/Meera.ttf)
and exported it as SVG font using File  menu. The SVG font was created
all glyphs were exported. But for glyphs that are formed from a
unicode sequence, the unicode attribute is missing from the glyph
element of xml.

>From the generated SVG:
<glyph glyph-name="k1l3" horiz-adv-x="1341"    d="......." />

This should be
<glyph glyph-name="k1l3" unicode="&#xd15;&#xd4d;&#xd32;"
horiz-adv-x="1341"    d="......." />

The unicode sequence is available at GSUB table.

Because of the missing unicode attribute, the rendering is text is
wrong when the svg is used.
