Chris Bowditch commented on FOP-2985:
-------------------------------------
I don't think this is the right solution. As you mention its specific fix to
PDF, and I don't think we should be calling beginText when rendering an image.
We don't even know if the image is an SVG at the place where you inserted this
code. I think letter spacing should be reset when ending the fo:inline with it
set, and this should be done in AbstractRenderer or IFRenderer not in PDFPainter
> [PATCH] SVG Images inherit font configuration from sibling objects.

> Key: FOP-2985
> URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/FOP-2985
> Project: FOP
> Issue Type: Bug
> Components: image/svg
> Reporter: Juan
> Priority: Minor
> Attachments: SVG-letter-spacing.patch, input.fo, sample.svg
>
>
> Given the sample [^input.fo] (adjust the path to sample.svg), the letter
> spacing of an inline element in a previous block is being applied also to an
> external-graphic element on a different block.
> The letter spacing property in the inline element should not affect the
> external-graphic in a different block.
> Additionally, setting letter-spacing on the external-graphic or it's parent
> block has no effect and the content still used the letter-spacing of the
> previous inline text.
>
> The given patch [^SVG-letter-spacing.patch] does fix the issue with
> letter-spacing, altough *it might need a more generic approach*.
