I have a solution to export svg to pdf with text that can be then edited in Illustrator/inkscape for example.
It is thanks to Inkscape used in command line.
- Install inkscape (add its installation path into
PATH
variable if you use Windows) - Change only one line in the
highcharts/exporting-server/index.php
Old one :
$output = shell_exec("java -jar ". BATIK_PATH ." $typeString -d $outfile $width temp/$tempName.svg");
New one :
$output = shell_exec("inkscape -f temp/$tempName.svg -A $outfile");
