Writing SVG code for editing with Sodipodi

I wrote a two-line program that generated a lemniscate and pasted the code 
into a <path> element in a Sodipodi file. Since the width and height are in 
millimeters I thought the coordinates would be in millimeters. They weren't. 
The lemniscate was too small. I then edited it so that it looked like
M-87.4619707139396mm 42.4024048078213mm
M-88.2947592858927mm 41.4518786277521mm
M-89.1006524188368mm 40.4508497187474mm
and tried again. The lemniscate went flat. I removed the millimeters and 
scaled it and put it in the middle of the 300*300mm square. The center is now 
at 531.4961,531.4961. What unit is Sodipodi using, and how do I tell it that 
the coordinates are in millimeters?
