Both inkscape (v 0.91) and apache batik (v 1.8) - two svg viewers/editors - display the standalone graphic upside down - i.e. ignoring the transform= attribute. I'll let the others continue the discussion about whether the attribute is valid etc. -------------------------------------------- On Thu, 17/3/16, Sairus Patel <sppatel@adobe.com> wrote: A couple of SVG-in-OT fonts use the transform attribute in the <svg> element: Bixa Color https://bixacolor.com/, just released last week, and Gecko Emoji http://people.mozilla.org/~jkew/opentype-svg/GeckoEmoji.html. https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/struct.html#SVGElement, however, doesn't include transform in the list of allowable attributes in the <svg> element. The font still "works" in Firefox, but if you extract a glyph's svg doc from the 'SVG ' table and display it in Chrome, IE, or Safari as a standalone graphic, it will show as being inverted (flipped upside down). Could someone please confirm that this interpretation is correct, and that there is no "story" to keep in mind around this such as a move to allow transform in the svg element in the future?
