SVG broken

[snibgo]

I'm upgrading from v6.8.9-5 to 6.9.0-0. Converting from SVG to PNG, via Inkscape v0.48 as the delegate, is broken. Most of my page http://im.snibgo.com/svgtext.htm is broken, but here is a simple example.

For example, with this text file st_curve_over.svg:

Code: Select all

<svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.2"
     xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" 
  width="100%" height="100%" viewBox="0 0 4924 4155">
  <title>Template for curved text</title>
  <defs>
<path id="rightLeg"
d="m 2054.9628,4087.2823 c 111.2433,-277.4071 283.6244,-569.5646 435.2041,-849.1977 139.5902,-257.5149 320.0689,-553.5677 436.536,-762.647 116.4671,-209.0793 332.4999,-623.9811 332.4999,-623.9811 M0,1000 L1000,1000"
 />
  </defs>
<text font-family="Verdana" font-size="200" fill="blue" >
    <textPath xlink:href="#rightLeg"
>We go up, then we go down, then up again</textPath>
  </text>
</svg>

With v6.8.9-5, this made blue text on a white background. With 6.9.0-0, it just makes a white image.

Code: Select all

I notice that the old version passed the SVG input file to Inkscape. The new version writes a temporary file, and passes that to Inkscape. Perhaps this is where the problem lies.

We can reproduce the problem you posted and have a patch in ImageMagick 6.9.0-1 Beta available by sometime tomorrow. Thanks.
