GIMP as I know it cannot render these fonts as expected.

Probably support for this belongs to Inkscape.  That being said by someone
who is just guessing.  I am pretty sure that GIMP does not work with SVG as
fonts.

More than this, I saw a very beautiful web page made with GTM (GIMP Table
Magic) so long ago.  Some of those font renderings really reminded me of
this.
