Re: SVG & PS/EPS surfaces

Hi again,

I found this in the mailing list archives:

So I changed all the images to PDF (instead of SVG/PS), and the files 
are still pixellated/rasterised, not vector-based.

I suppose I could change the size to 600dpi or so, but it would be nice 
to have vector based image files.

I seem to be using libcairo2 version 1.14.2 (latest version in Ubuntu).
