While I'd love to report that all is well (see: https://bugs.launchpad.net/bugs/382379), I think that there are still serious issues. (Sorry Till, but you'd ask that we test).
Attached are three test files of an svg drawing with text:
1. Example_printwcups.pdf is printed to pdf via cups & Till's latest pdftops.
2. Example_savedfromInkscape.pdf is a pdf using 'save as' Inkscape pdf (using cairo).
3. Example_printtofile.pdf is the same svg using print to file.
Note that #1 is 97.4Kb and prints to pdf only as a graphic (no fonts, no text).
#2 is 23.2Kb and embeds the Arial text font and the dejavusansbold font for the numbers on the graphic.
#3 is 23.6Kb and also properly embeds the fonts.
Also notice the graphic qualities in #1 vs #2&3; the lines do not render clean (jags) & is most apparent on the green lines.
