This is to report success using the following solution:

- import the png file (cleaned previously with Gimp) into Inkscape and link it (not incorporate)
- fill up the text part with the Text tool of Inkscape.
- save the svg file as a simple svg
- import both images in the EPUB
- insert the svg file in the xhtml file
- declare the new position of the png file within the svg file

... and that's it.

Pretty convenient! Thanks for your help!!


but one thing: the png image does not display on the EPUB!! However if I import the EPUB in Calibre and then convert it to PDF using Jellby's plugin, I get a perfect PDF with text and image...

There is probably an easy explanation...
