SVG getting mangled when I export to pdf

[kennedydane]

Hi Simon,

I've put my test case here. Essentially the html output is from a jinja2 script and the svg is from ggplot (python's one, not R). I can't imagine why it would make a difference, and it didn't, but I used weasyprint in both CLI and in python. The pdf is just fine if I export my image to png (except the png is uglier and bigger).

Thanks for any help you can give,
Dane.

@liZe is you cairo patch published somewhere?

[kennedydane]

Super, thanks! I think the latter will be pretty easy to implement.

/me goes and tries.

Oh, btw, while trying to figure out what was potting I noticed in image.py that quite often you're setting self.intrinsic_ratio, where setting self._intrinsic_ratio would be more consistent. I couldn't find where intrinsic_ratio was actually used, so it might not even be a problem. But ya. Seemed odd to me.

Yay, just changing that width and heigh parameter worked like a charm.

It’s been a while since I looked at image.py. If you think there’s a bug there, please file an issue with details or submit a PR!

I'm not really confident in my knowledge of the code, but I'll try to make a contribution a bit later in the week.

I've tried to send the patch twice on the mailing list, and twice directly with the author of the commit.

And one more, sent with git-send-mail after a remark from a member of the mailing list:

Yeah! The patch finally got accepted!
