A user report on the forum says that the Scalable Vector Graphics (svg) importer "doesn't work" on SVG exported from Adobe Illustrator CC. He supplied a test file, which I simplified a bit here:

I find that the importer works, but that the scale is about 10,000 too small.

I note that removing the "viewbox" attribute from the svg node in the example file results in an imported size that looks about right. But I hesitate to remove or disable the viewbox processing code in addons/io_curve_svg/import_svg.py as I am not familiar with how the code is doing its scaling.

Hi, testing several svg files, the scale issue still exists.
Could we add the fix by Howard Trickey (howardt).?
Would it be better to add a checkbox/settings in the file browser operator panel?
