You may need to install the mgopen-fonts package to see the fonts properly. I'm not totally who to send these to generate the PNGs, but you can send the translated SVGs for now.
Please send two SVGs: One with the translation for the singular "arriving in 1 day" and one for the plural "arriving in XX days"
I'll try to get somebody from the art team to send some more specific instructions and to help out with the this is possible.
It's very ugly at least for Persian and Balochi. I've made a test for its translation but outcome is too bad :D. Blurs makes it unclear.

Looking at the SVG, Paolo, I think it can be made more friendly for translations (sorry for not checking this earlier), something like putting all the text to be translated outside the canvas and use clones... is not a good idea to have the text to be translated twice, one time as normal text and another time as a halo and everything under a complex structure of groups. Keep in mind that our translators are not necessary Inkscape power-users.
