Description Thomas Zwick 2025-09-23 06:58:41 UTC 
Steps to reproduce:

Add in Draw a text box with some text in it.

Compose the text with different fonts. You may even mix with Wingdings or Webdings characters.

Mark and export the text box to a SVG file.

View the SVG file and compare it with the original Draw object.

Depending on the font mix, the result can vary between stretched or squeezed characters to complete unreadable.

This is a regression. It was correct in the former version 7.x.
