Changing font in svg-drawing

Post by dejhost »

Hi there!

I am importing svg using the svg usepackage:

Code: Select all

\documentclass[11pt, a4paper, titlepage]{book}
\usepackage{svg}

\begin{document}
\begin{figure}
	\centering
	\includesvg[width=0.7\textwidth]{CAD/temp01}
	\caption{this is the temp drawing}\label{fig:temp}
\end{figure}
\end{document}
With these settings, the fontsize within the drawing gets ignored. Instead the fontsize of the latex-document are applied (which is fine for most cases).
I'd like to learn how to change the fontsize of individual letters/words by editing the .pdf_tex-file. In this example, could you please help me to edit the word "hello"? Here are the relevant lines:

Code: Select all

\begin{picture}(1,0.9296235)%
    \lineheight{1}%
    \setlength\tabcolsep{0pt}%
    \put(0.1527998,0.0010434){\color[rgb]{1,0,0}\makebox(0,0)[lt]{\lineheight{1.25}\smash{\begin{tabular}[t]{l}hello\end{tabular}}}}%
    \put(0,0){\includegraphics[width=\unitlength,page=1]{temp01_svg-tex.pdf}}%
  \end{picture}%

I tried following this guideline: https://tex.stackexchange.com/a/322260
But I did not get it to work. Beside the fontsize, I also need to apply underscore (for example: Hell_{o}).

Thank you!
