This section addresses issues where text renders in black instead of the intended colors due to Inkscape-specific font specification references.
-When an SVG `style` attribute contains a reference to `-inkscape-font-specification`, all values that follow said reference are ignored. This results in black text, shown in [@fig:blacked-text]:

docs/12-quotes.md
Eventually, straight quotes were codified for computers. Unfortunately, this legacy from typewriters created challenges for encoding. Apostrophes inherited the straight quote form, and early encoding standards failed to capture the nuanced meanings in English typography. Computers forced users to treat the apostrophe as a straight quote.
-Standards bodies recommended using the right single quotation mark for an apostrophe instead, which disregarded its semantic meaning. As a result, text containing English quotations—especially in British English—is now riddled with ambiguity.
+Standards bodies recommended using the right single quotation mark for an apostrophe instead, which disregarded its semantic meaning. As a result, text containing English quotations---especially in British English---is now riddled with ambiguity.
Consider the sentence:
-> Ambiguity lurks in "'cause the horses'".
+> Ambiguity lurks in \"\'cause the horses\'\".
Does `'cause` mean _because_ or _induce_? The answer determines whether an open left single quote is used or an apostrophe, semantically speaking. This example highlights how ancient typographical decisions continue to impact modern systems.
