I probably tried to simplify it. Are you happy to work from the Github code? Some questions which will clarify the process for me (and hopefully avoid wasting your time): * that the strategy of intercepting fillPath and strokePath and capturing the graphics attributes and path is viable? * that fillPath draws both fill and stroke in the AWT canvas (and that strokePath does the same) so that either may be called. This doesn't seem right * the calls were after " beginText ...endText" - does endText clear the stroke/fill attributes? * are fill, stroke and (Basic)Stroke (which provides lineWidth, etc.) the only states that need to be considered? I will tidy the Github code, create a simpler example (I export PDF from PPT, but could use Inkscape), and work from that.
