svg backend

[Julian Peterson]

Hello.

I'm trying to use the svg backend of 2.8.8 but am getting the following 
error:
warning: can't decypher Pango description: Century Schoolbook

(this actually occurs many, many times, probably once for each instance 
of text).  When I open the svg file with inkscape, I am presented with a 
single blank page (the input is a 6 page score).  The manual states that 
it will dump a separate file for each page, but only one file is generated.

I've copied the OTF fonts to ~/.fonts as suggested by the manual.  What 
else am I missing?

Thanks,
Julian Peterson
