Bug Description

With Inkscape 0.91 I have noticed that some fonts become cut off or don't display properly when zooming into the drawing. Once I zoom out the font appears normal again.

Screenshot attached.

Thank you!

Please always include information about OS/platform when filing new reports, thank you.

To allow further investigation, please attach a test case as Inkscape SVG file [1], and provide information about the font(s) required to be installed in order to reproduce the reported issue.

Likely this is the same underlying issue as what is already tracked in
* Bug #1283194 “Text rendering cuts off trailing character (depending on zoom level) (rev >= 12488)”

[1] a screenshot usually does not provide essential information which would allow to attempt to reproduce the reported issue on other systems beyond guessing what the actual content of the SVG file was which had been used for the screenshot.

Of course! I should of add that info, sorry, was in a bit of a rush when writing this report...

Linux Debian 7 32-bit Wheezy

Yes, that bug report seems to be a perfect example of what is happening to me with certain fonts.

Attaching my SVG and TTF fles for you to test.

Thanks again!

Thank you for providing a detailed test case as requested. On OS X 10.7.5, with provided test case (svg+font):
- not reproduced with Inkscape 0.48.5
- reproduced with Inkscape 0.91 r13725
- reproduced with Inkscape 0.91+devel r14048

Tests with archived builds refer to the same revision as mentioned in bug #1283194 (ok with rev <= 12487, not ok depending on zoom level with rev >= 12488).

As commented earlier, linking as duplicate to bug #1283194 (same underlying issue).
