   There was a bug in one of the Mac JRE's where it would
render the lines going 'up' rather than down (I think it was
one of the Mac OS X 1.4 versions).  Could that be the bug you
are seeing?


Nope... that's not what it's doing.  The problem is just as I described it.

This is really frustrating... I think I'm going to have to go to "plan B" here, and have our designer create static text images in Illustrator or whatever they use, and do this the "old school" web monkey way :-(. I have no clue how to debug this.

Part of the frustration is that as far as I know I'm at the mercy of Apple w.r.t. JRE version. My laptop is running a newer version of Mac OS X: 10.5.2 ("Leopard") vs. OS X Server 10.4.11 ("Tiger") on the server... both fully updated. However, the server appears to be running with a more recent JRE build:

        Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 
1.5.0_13-b05-241)

vs. this on my laptop:

        Java(TM) 2 Runtime Environment, Standard Edition (build 
1.5.0_13-b05-237)

So apparently, OS X Server is tracking Java separately from the desktop/laptop OS X, allowing the latest "OS X Server Tiger" to be "ahead" of the latest "OS X Leopard" (non-Server).

Any desperate suggestions for me to try before I pull the plug on SVG for this application?

thx,
