           Summary: SVG text is rendered very poorly on En.wikipedia,
                    compared to Commons
           Product: Wikimedia
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: All
               URL: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Moxfyre/SVG_Bug
        OS/Version: All
            Status: NEW
          Severity: enhancement
          Priority: Normal
         Component: General/Unknown
        AssignedTo: [email protected]
        ReportedBy: [email protected]


I recently updated an SVG image on commons, basically a set of line drawings
with some textual captions
(http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:SensorSizes.svg).  I noticed that
reduced-size versions of this image are rendered much more cleanly and legibly
on Commons, while they are rendered very poorly on En.wikipedia.

Here is an example of rendering this image on Commons:

    http://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/User:Moxfyre/SVG_Bug

And here is an example of rendering this image on En.wikipedia:

    http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/User:Moxfyre/SVG_Bug

I don't know what the source of this problem is, but if I had to hazard a
guess... I would say that there is some mis-configuration of the software that
renders SVG to PNG for English Wikipedia.

Thanks for taking a look at this!
