Font in svg file
I create a svg file with php which includes a dynamic text. Therefore I have embedded the used font with <glyph>.... This works fine with Chrome, but Firefox uses the standard font. How can I use an embedded font in the svg file?
Thanks in advance Manuel

Firefox can't handle two different fonts in one svg file. That was the problem.
Thanks for your help. Manuel

As firefox supports HTML 5 so recreate the file with with proper codings.
Can you link to a page demonstrating the issue?
The MDN documentation on glyph is here: https://developer.mozilla.org/docs/Web/SVG/Element/glyph (I don't see any unusual warnings)
@Sourjobraato Banerjee: Sorry, I didn't get your point. The file was created by Adobe Illsutrator so it should be SVG 1.1 conform.
@jscher2000: You can see an example here: http://events.tsv-bodnegg.de/files/header.php?text=Example The text "example" shout be shown in Roboto.
@core-el: The docs say that is not implemented (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/SVG_in_Firefox) but the tutorial (https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/SVG/Tutorial/SVG_fonts) says it should work.
I have an image attached. It should look like the chrome version.
