Details

User-Agent:       Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1
Build Identifier: Mozilla/5.0 (Windows; U; Windows NT 5.1; en-US; rv:1.8.0.1) Gecko/20060111 Firefox/1.5.0.1

Firefox doesn't seem to be printing text in the right direction when it encounters the style="writing-mode:tb", it should print it top to bottom, but still prints it left to right.

Reproducible: Always

Steps to Reproduce:
1.Run an svg file with the appropriate code.
Example:

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg width="1216px" height="867px"
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.1">
  <text x="120" y="524"
        font-family="Bitstream Vera Sans" font-size="12" fill="black" text-anchor="start" style="writing-mode:tb">
12:00 AM
</text>
</svg>


Try it in IE *shudder* and it rotates like it's suppose to.
Actual Results:  
Horizontal Text

Expected Results:  
Vertical Text
