Re: SVG output: Bad \smallCaps kerning

With the symbolic link solution, I'm "content" on the command line. As
to Frescobaldi, I just tried again with the same results.

Odd. Yes, I understood that it wasn't a permanent setting... I tried
it twice and both times it gave me a PDF. Maybe I missed something.
(All I did was

(I tried it with Engraving mode: Preview as well.)

The output was:

Examining the output file, it shows that it is, indeed, a PDF.
