font-size in export-latex

[Matthias Blümel]

exporting a svg via the command-line results in a pdf_tex-file which uses the parameters \svgscale and \svgwidth to “scale” the image down. this doesn’t work for text, because the script only defines the text-position but leaves the font-size as is.

Maybe there are ways to scale it down too (e.g. calculating the rate and use {\fontsize{40}{48} \selectfont Text} ), but I think the simplest solution is removing all the code and refering in the documentation to

\resizebox{<width>}{!}{\input{<file>.pdf_tex}}
   instead of
\includegraphics[width=<width>]{<file>}

\resizebox{!}{<height>}{\input{<file>.pdf_tex}}
  instead of
\includegraphics[height=<height>]{<file>}

\resizebox{<width>}{<height>}{\input{<file>.pdf_tex}}
  instead of
\includegraphics[width=<width>,height=<height>]{<file>}

\scalebox{<scale>}{\input{<file>.pdf_tex}}
  instead of
\includegraphics[scale=<scale>]{<file>}

which workes fine for me.
