[Bug 463078] Re: Dia export to Cairo PNG causes mangled text fonts

 

In case anyone else comes along with the same problem: I was able to
work around by choosing the file type during export and instead of using
Cairo PNG, I used PNG (anti-aliased). This doesn't give you a
transparency option, but for my purposes it worked fine.

Title:
  Dia export to Cairo PNG causes mangled text fonts

Status in dia package in Ubuntu:
  Fix Released

Bug description:
  Binary package hint: dia

  Description:    Ubuntu 9.10
  Release:        9.10

  dia 0.97-2
  dia-common 0.97-2
  dia-libs 0.97-2
  libcairo2 1.8.8-2ubuntu1
  libfreetype6 2.3.9-5
  libpango1.0-0 1.26.0-1
  libpango1.0-common 1.26.0-1

  
  Method to demonstrate: load the file "text.dia" then export to PNG using Cairo and export to PNG using Pixbuf -- the character layout has a strange gap in the Cairo output. Note that output PNG files are also attached to this bug report, and this problem happens with various other more complex dia outputs as well as this simple example.
