Hi,

when importing a PDF, Chinese, Japanese, and Korean text is invisible,
because the font size inkscape applies, is too small:

inkscape --export-overwrite --export-type=svg example.pdf

creates a file example.svg with font-size:9.75px for most text, but
font-size:1e-32px for Korean and Chinese.

(Also, the symbol 繁 is left out entirely.)

Workaround: Use pdf2svg instead.

Cheers

Better workaround: Find out correct font-size and edit.
