I still can’t find any indication that Qt XML is deprecated. Why do people believe that? It says: > Note: Qt XML will no longer receive additional features. ... But this is just a symptom of DOM. Elsewhere the documentation says: > As SAX classes have been removed from Qt XML, QDomDocument has been > re-implemented using QXmlStreamReader.

If Qt XML really becomes deprecated one day, I can just use another DOM implementation without changing my algorithms. :) So, as long as my code is not finished and shows performance problems, I will use QDomDocument. --- > Alternatively, why not write a simple script for this using Python e.g.?

So, a library with a C++ interface would be convenient. Transforming the SVG file with XSLT to a list of text occurences sounds like a good idea. Cheers, David
