This function can be called at any time before generating the SVG file.
However to minimize the risk of ambiguities it's recommended to call it before any drawing operations have been performed on the given surface, to make it clearer what the unit used in the drawing operations is.
The simplest way to do this is to call this function immediately after creating the SVG surface.
Note if this function is never called, the default unit for SVG documents generated by cairo will be "pt". This is for historical reasons.
