Re: Lowercase letter L is sometimes too thick
thanks polygon I did install Scribus to convert the Inkscape into CYMK but Scribus said my file had some unsupported features and then made a hash of importing the SVG. http://imgh.us/Scribus_import_of_SVG.jpg should be http://imgh.us/FoBMCP_A4_tri-fold_leaflet_outside_panels_v2b_Final.png Next time...

Re: Lowercase letter L is sometimes too thick
Many thanks tylerdurden for your suggestion. Something to try next time but I find this hand-off to the printers stressful. In 2014 on the first print run I made a mistake with the embedded fonts and it cost me over £100 (US$140) out of my own pocket - don't tell my wife!! As this is a community gro...

Re: Lowercase letter L is sometimes too thick
Great detective work tylerdurden :) So, what is the solution for myself as a lay person? P.S. In my last post Tue Mar 15, 2016 11:26 am I used the term kerning when referring to trying to reduce the space between letters and between words to get more words on the line to match the original In Design...

Re: Lowercase letter L is sometimes too thick
Thanks guys for your investigations. As per Lazur URH I've changed the dropbox url though the in-line display is still not showing text. Based on druban's analysis I will not raise a bug report. I think I will look at another font and see if I can avoid kernelling but isn't it sometimes needed? Let ...

Re: Lowercase letter L is sometimes too thick
Many thanks for a quick reply. As the original svg file is 88MB I've created a version without the images at just 77K. It is here: http://www.dropbox.com/s/4gpr72nyn81zuk3/FoBMCP%20A4%20tri-fold%20leaflet%20outside%20panels%20v2b%20Final%20w-o%20images.svg?dl=1 As stated above, the problem in the pr...

Lowercase letter L is sometimes too thick
Hi, first post, so may I start by saying I have found Inkscape to be a powerful and quick to learn the basics program. So many thanks to all you developers. I've produced a leaflet for a community group and I just received it back from the printers. One issue was the lower-case letter Ls were too th...
