  Function definition: (Copy & paste into FileMaker's Edit Custom Function window)

This function converts SVG-Text from FileMakers function GetAsSVG back into FileMaker formatted Text.
My purpose was to transfer FileMaker formatted Text via JBDC/XML with MirrorSync. Usually Text formatting is disregarded when syncing with Mirrorsync.

I used the following CFs, so they are prerequisites:

ParseData CF -> http://www.briandunning.com/cf/559

color_convert_hex CF -> http://www.briandunning.com/cf/2036

HTMLencoded2Text -> http://www.fmfunctions.com/functions_display_record.php?functionId=178
