Created attachment 193581 [details] ex units The attached SVG has this markup: <text x="5" y="20" style="font-size:16px;font-family:Liberation Sans">foo <tspan x="5" dy="3ex" style="font-size:1ex">bar</tspan></text> It sets the outer (text's) font-size to 16px, then in the inner tspan, it sets the font-size to 1ex, and dy to 3ex. According to spec, the font-size value of the tspan must be calculated as 1 x-height of the first available font with inherited font-size, with a fallback to 0.5em (i.e., roughly half of 16px). When opening the SVG in a browser (e.g., Chrome), the second line "bar" is rendered with a smaller size than the first line. In Draw, the second line is incorrectly rendered using the same font size as the first line.
