- <question>SVG text rendered in bad quality. How do I put SVG text as text

+ <question>The rendering of SVG text in my PDF is of poor quality.
+Can I control this?</question>
<answer>
- <p>
- The svg text is rendered as shapes, the Acrobat viewer displays it
- with bad quality unless you turn on smooth line art in the Acrobat
- preferences. The printout is always ok, it's only the screen view
- which is of bad quality by default.
- </p>
- <p>
- You can force Batik not to render SVG text by setting the
- strokeSVGText property to false. You can do this in the user
- configuration file:
- </p>
- <source><![CDATA[<entry>
- <key>strokeSVGText</key>
- <value>false</value>
-</entry>]]></source>
- <p>
- In a servlet environment, you can set it directly:
- </p>
- <source>org.apache.fop.configuration.Configuration.put("strokeSVGText",
Boolean.FALSE);</source>
- <p>
- See also <link href="#usercfg">using a user configuration file</link>
- in a servlet.
- </p>
- <p>
- This does not work for other renderers.

+The drawback to forcing text to be rendered as text is that it will be confined to
text that is
possible for PDF fonts (including embedded fonts) and implemented with
this workaround. The fonts available are the standard pdf fonts and any
fonts that you have embedded using FOP. The font sizes will be rounded
to an integer value. In future this will be improved.

graphic, you may need to consider settings in your viewer for both.
+The Acrobat viewer has both "smooth line art" and "smooth text" settings that may
need to be set for SVG images to be displayed nicely on your screen (see Edit /
Preferences / Display).
+This setting will not affect the printing of your document, which should be OK in
any case, but will only affect the quality of the screen display.</p>
