I know that text as images should be used only as the last resort. I would only do it for aesthetic effect on chapter starting pages (a decorative glyph > SVG), for scene dividers, for the raised cap for the first paragraph in the chapter, or for the words "The end" on the last page.
The only time you hae to do the ext as a graphic is for Mono that doesn't support embedded fonts. There's no other reason. What you want to do can be done in SVG.
