imagemagick 6.6.9-9 convert svg to png problem

Post by jumped99 »

Hi,

i really appreciate IM. It is a great software!

I have encountered a problem with a fresh installation of (macports 1.9.1 installation)
Version: ImageMagick 6.6.9-9 2011-05-24 Q16

When i try to convert an svg to a png by calling `convert test.svg test.png` the png is essentially blank.
It seems that something changed with the handling of the transform attribute. However, the svg
is rendered fine by Preview and Illustrator. Also, the conversion works using an earlier version of IM (6.5.7-0).

What am I doing wrong?

PS: here is the svg

Code: Select all

<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="240.00" height="230.00">
<g transform="rotate(-90) scale(0.10,-0.10) translate(-1800.00,-1200.00)">
<g>
<g stroke="black" stroke-width="10" stroke-linecap="round" transform="translate(0.0,0.0) rotate(0.0)">
<line x1="0" y1="0" x2="-200" y2="0"></line><line x1="0" y1="0" x2="-50" y2="30"></line>
<line x1="0" y1="0" x2="-50" y2="-30"></line>
</g>
<g stroke="black" stroke-width="10" stroke-linecap="round" transform="translate(565.4,-901.9) rotate(58.2)">
