[Bug 16368] [SVG Rendering] Worsening of font rendering quality
https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/show_bug.cgi?id=16368 --- Comment #15 from Ryan Kaldari --- Our SVG font rendering still sucks. Attached a comparison of an SVG using the Liberation Sans font, which I know we have on the scaler servers (https://gerrit.wikimedia.org/r/#/c/126249/) and which I also have installed locally. The image on the left is my local rendering and the image on the right is the Commons thumbnail (recently generated). The Commons rendering is so bad it doesn't even look like the same font. The kerning is totally random, the letters are running into each other and the words look vertically squished. If rsvg can't render fonts correctly, is there anything else we could use? -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.

Letters are jumpimg up and down the baseline. eg look at "Jadebusen". At "Lang-Lütjensand" t and j interfere with each other. Hence labels look somewhat messy at downscaled images. Please note, that it looked well at the time I've uploaded the SVG. So something must have changed in the meantime, what causes these effects. -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

Please directly compare a SVG and a PNG of the same image side by side. Like: http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jade-weser-muendung_map_de.svg http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Jade-weser-muendung_map_de.png The labels in the SVG are pixelated (particularly when downscaled), single letters are placed not accurate (jumping up and down, left and right). By now, it is absolutely not possible to have maps as SVG at Commons - because the labels are too ugly and unreadable. For me (as a map maker), SVG usage at Commons is dead. The results are way to far from satisfying (there are a lot of other problems as well with SVG). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email --- You are receiving this mail because: --- You are on the CC list for the bug. ___ Wikibugs-l mailing list Wikibugs-l@lists.wikimedia.org https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l

When saving chemical formulas as text without text converted to path, there are severe rendering issues, especially when using scaled down versions.
