useCSS option failing

[josecolella]

Hello,
First of all I wanted to thank you for this. Makes using pdfkit much easier. I am receiving the following message when trying to convert an svg with styles to a pdf document:

SVGtoPDF: useCSS option can only be used for SVG elements in compatible browsers

I have tried to use your demo site and it works perfectly with the useCSS option.

Here is a link to the gist. https://gist.github.com/josecolella/adc2e835a84a148b441b37453b54f064

Experienced a similar problem. It turns out that in Chrome, someEmbedElement.getSVGDocument().firstElementChild may be a object that don't instanceof SVGElement (yet still supports getComputedStyle). So useCSS is forced to be false on such elements. See this for a minimal example.

This only happens in Chrome (at least not in Firefox). It looks more likely a browser bug to me though.

Found a workaroud for previous comment: we can fix its prototype manually

Object.setPrototype(SVGSVGElement.prototype, theAlienObject);
SVGtoPDF(doc, theAlienObject, 0, 0, { useCSS: true });
