I bought the book on Inkscape and searched this site. I set preferences in Inkscape to points for text-unit-type.

For running a decorative calligraphy-text in a loop once around a page (along a path) and make the ends fit nicely I would need exactly 11.35 point font size. But Inkscape only lets me select 11pt or 12pt, not a fraction (like Scribus allows). I tried "." and "," for the fraction-delimiter but neither works.

I have tweaked the "spacing between letters" option, but that makes our text very ugly, so I would love to adjust the font-size instead.

Is this possible? And what is the hack please?

I am working on Inkscape 64bit 0.91 r13725 under Windows 10 64bit.

You might have missed selecting all text.


Select the text object with the arrow tool
Switch to the text tool
Press Ctrl+A to select all text
In the toolbar, adjust the font size, type 11.35 and Enter
