[Bug 770707] Re: Kerning error in outline rendering

 

It's a bit of a long shot, but could anyone who has this problem (I don't) try changing line:
http://bazaar.launchpad.net/~openlp-core/openlp/trunk/view/head:/openlp/core/lib/htmlbuilder.py#L567
            lyrics += u' letter-spacing: 1px;'

to the following, and seeing if it makes any difference?:
            lyrics += u' letter-spacing: 1px; word-spacing: 0em; '

Title:
  Kerning error in outline rendering

Status in OpenLP - Worship Presentation Software:
  Confirmed

Bug description:
  Currently the outline rendering uses a kerning different from the 'shadow' one. Thus it happens, that the 'outline characters' and the 'shadow characters' are shifted towards each other.
  To show the effect one has to create a theme with a outline. It depends on the words if this happens. So you might have to look at a couple of different slides.
  Sample configuration: Main area font: DejaVu Sans | 34pt | bold | outline 1pt
  It looks, that there are basic differences in the kerning algorithms, as the problem is strong at characters like a capital 'T' followed by a half height letter.
