By chance, did you ALSO embedd your custom font in your svg image? The following is a very old (10 years ago!
) post of mine that can be of help to you:

But many things have changed since that old post. The code I wrote still will work in ADE 2.x/3.x (that is, epub2) and also in ADE 4.x as epub2. But in not many places more. Why? Because ereaders based on Webkit/Readium won't honor embedded fonts in a svg image. And as practically all epub3 ereaders of today are based on webkit or Readium, your custom fonts won't be displayed on them. So you should do what you don't want to do: convert your svg text in paths so your text will be showed everywhere.
In the post I mention above, you can find my test epub. First, open that epub in ADE (you'll see that the custom font Marnie is showed). Then open that epub in Sigil (for example); you'll see that the custom font is not displayed (also is not displayed on any of the three Sigil's plugins to read epubs). Why? Because Sigil is based on webkit. You neither will be able to watch the custom font in Thorium (that is based on Readium). So your best bet is to convert your svg text in paths.
