Description Martin von Gagern 2006-08-25 15:43:43 UTC

Fiddeling with some SVGs, I just encountered a strange bug in rsvg-convert.
When converting the atached SVG to PDF, the dashed line is missing. The
following changes all make things work again:
1. remove opacity specification
2. change opacity specification to "1"
3. add opacity specification to enclosing group
4. removing the dashing specification
5. output to PNG instead of PDF

I first encountered this with a cairo 1.2.2 setup, but just reproduced it with
1.2.4 as well.

I'm running Gentoo linux, and first filed the bug as a Gentoo bug report:
http://bugs.gentoo.org/show_bug.cgi?id=145090

From there I was sent to the rsvg product of the gnome bugzilla:
http://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=352906

But as the PNG output is all right, they decided it has to be a PDF backend
issue, so I'm here now.

I used rsvg-convert 2.18.2 and cairo 1.5.14 to convert the SVG file to PDF and it appears to be correct. The dash line is visible. I also tested with cairo 1.4.10 and dashed line is visible.

It looks like the bug has been fixed. At lot has changed in the PDF backend since 1.2.4.

Please re-open if you still experience the same bug using cairo 1.5.14 or later.
