Hello,
i've exactly the same problem.
I'm using inkscape and Tex Text for my scientific stuff.
Mathematical formulars are written in Tex Text, whereas the normal text (LMRoman10) is written in Inkscape.
Booth fonts are exactly the same, but the kerning is different.
For example "Test" (from Tex and Text) looks differently (at T<->est).
Normally, as far as i know, Inkscape should automatically do the kerning for ttf-fonts?
One can adjust it, by manually do "Alt +" or "Alt -" on the specific letter.
But this is not an option for me, since i've to write a lot text.
Even the latest svn build (11.03.2009) still has this problem.
