I use the python rsvg bindings to render an svg image into cairo and save to file, which mostly works. But if the svg file contains a linked image, like so:
<image href="static/usrimgs/tmpDtIKpx.png" x="10" y="10" width="600px" height="400px"></image>
the image doesn’t show up in the final file (the rest of the svg renders just fine). The relative path is correct based on where the script is running, but I’m guessing there’s some problem with the fact that it would normally be a relative URL, not a relative filepath. How do I get around this?
The answer was to process the links to start with
file:///and be a full absolute path.
