In Ubuntu Karmic, the Gnome "print" dialog's print-to-file mode includes an option for SVG output (along with PS and PDF). However, if I select this mode in Firefox, the resulting ".svg" file *actually* contains postscript.
STEPS TO REPRODUCE:
1. File | Print
2. Select "Print To File" from the printer list
3. Select "SVG" as the Output Format, and enter in a name for the file.
4. Examine the resulting file
EXPECTED RESULTS: Outputted file should be an SVG (or, "SVG" output mode should not be available)
ACTUAL RESULTS: Examining the text of the outputted file shows that it's actually a postscript file.
