simple SVG plot from matplotlib et from graphviz

LibreOfficeDraw is not able to import simple SVG from Graphviz (correctly displayed and rendered by Inkscape on winXP, Gnome image wiewer on Ubuntu, Firefox and Abiword on Ubuntu) and from python/matplotlib (also correctly displayed on other software).

The graph from Graphviz has his text at the wrong place. The plot from matplotlib is completely destroyed by Draw.

Thus the SVG import function is not usable for the moment for scientific publication. But still, it's a great software for conventional writing and again thank you all to improve it in the right direction.

The version used is LibreOfficePortable on winXP. I'll try it on Ubuntu, just to be sure it's not a lib/dll issue on Portable version.

Insert->Picture works like a charm, confirming tester8 and Dominik Kopp findings.
