To color the outline of text, hold Shift and click a color. To color a text, select the text, and click a color from the palette. Use Select Tool and select the text and 8 arrows appear around it and drag one to resize the text either it is shrinking or enlarging. For example, change a text font ( typeface) from Times New Roman to Liberation Serif. So my conclusion on this simple test the text importing behaviour rely on from which software a pdf is generated.Use Text Tool and click the text and block select it and select a font from Font Chooser on toolbar. (no attachment)įinally created another pdf using LibreOffice, and here is the result I also created a pdf in scribus v1.4.7, but poppler couldn't render whitespace properly leading to all gliphs converted to separate text, but color remained. You can also refer to the svg and pdf attached for further investigation 929x722) (viewed 372 times)ĭespite of only 1 object used when creating the text, now we have 2 objects, thus 2 colors. I just realized that I was just assuming in the previous post, therefore i run some simple test to replicate the problem įirst, I created pdf in Inkscape and re-imported back to inkscape Because other person who use different computer could not see it properly unless they have that specific font installed. I don't know SVG specification, but if it couldn't embed font, then there is no point in having text as text. Even in pdf, it would not display correctly unless you embed the font. The reason is, from my observation any text I have in SVG would not shown properly (in terms of kerning, positioning) in my image viewer (i'm using ristretto in xubuntu) and also in Firefox. Otherwise he/she can use other tools that's more suitable for batch conversion like Ghostscript? or even Poppler on its think SVG might not be the right format for preserving text formatting? but again I could be wrong. ![]() For OP case, I think the more effective solution would be to include "convert text to path option" in command line, but haven't tried Inkscape command from terminal myself so I might be wrong. However, we don't know if this is due to the original software that made the pdf (i mean by the person originally set those text fields to one instead of separately), or simply Inkscape/Poppler screwed up when importing the text. This is probably the reason why poppler chose either 1 of the color instead of showing both. 1075x838) (viewed 389 times)Īs you can see, both the subtitle and label are in the same text area. ![]() Please look at the text box/text field area of the blue text This is what it looks like after imported using internal method. But not sure if it's a bug or simply a limitation of Inkscape text handling. Hi, I did try to open the pdf of the original OP in Inkscape and can confirm the text colors changed. If you're unsure what kind of info needs to be included in a bug report, you can read this: Someone who understands it (better than me) needs to make the report. If there is no report, it's just not going to get fixed. If a report already exists, it might have a fix or workaround. But the problem is too far outside my understanding, to be able to make a potentially successful report.Īs an open source program, Inkscape is developed by its community. I wish I could make the report, since the op apparently didn't want to get involved. But you're welcome to do that, and you're also welcome to make a report if you don't find one. I also did not search any further for existing reports. I do understand what commandline is, in general, but not at all how to use it.) I would not be able to answer developers questions, or even supply example files or test files. (I really have no idea what shell mode is. Normally I would have made the report myself (if the user didn't want to) but I don't understand this problem well enough. By re-reading this thread, it doesn't appear that a new bug report was made. ![]()
