SVG::GD doesn't provide a copy method. It overrides some of the GD::Font and GD::Image methods by aliasing *GD::Image:: to *SVG::GD::Image:: and *GD::Font:: to *SVG::GD::Font::, but there's no SVG::GD::Image::copy so you get Can't locate object method "copy" via package "SVG::GD::Image". Therefore, I am looking for alternative methods.
