Bug Description

When exporting a drawing to LaTeX, Inkscape does not provide any support for the font size. This patch provides font size support.

The idea was taken from Xfig.

Thanks for the patch, I think it has been requested before.
Although the feature is nice for some, it is a pain for others. Especially when writing equations, the latex text can become quite large, so it helps to shrink it a lot in Inkscape. This patch makes this impossible. So, the proposed functionality here should be optional. Please add an option for this in the PDF/EPS/PS output dialogs and make it *off* by default.

Thank you for your quick response. You made a point with requiring optional support for the font size. Never thought about it this way.

I added the requested option in the PDF/EPS/PS output dialog.

Sorry I didn't see your reply before. Launchpad keeps spamming me, so you have to be lucky...

Can you upload a patch file that I can easily apply to trunk? the paths in the patch file seem wrong.
