Ok, tcl is given with Python (standard library). Therefore, you sentence: 'Are you really ruling out its use for a "pure Python" solution?' Is well done... ;-) Michel Claveau

PyChart generates SVG reasonably well, and needs no external programs when generating SVG. But there's something broken related to font sizes. Larger values of "font-size" produce smaller type, and chart labels don't fit their boxes. I'm trying to figure out whether PyChart is generating incorrect SVG or whether Mozilla is incorrectly rendering SVG. John Nagle
