Description:
How it properly renders in FF 14 & IE 9

The text in the following svg file renders too large.

https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pictograph_aligned_and_similar_size.svg

The svg file properly renders in FF 14 & IE9.

This may be related to:
T15486, T15494

The element for the rendering of "Banana" is:

<text
   xml:space="preserve"
   style="font-size:40px;font-style:normal;font-weight:normal;line-height:125%;letter-spacing:0px;word-spacing:0px;fill:#000000;fill-opacity:1;stroke:none;font-family:Sans"
   x="10"
   y="112.36218"
   id="text2995"
   sodipodi:linespacing="125%"><tspan
     sodipodi:role="line"
     id="tspan2997"
     x="10"
     y="112.36218">Banana</tspan></text>

This is not really a bug more like a Inkscape bug. There is only a (false generic) font-family: "Sans" which FF and IE9 and Chrome don't interpret (only Pango) but libRSVG does (as compatibly support). There are also several text bugs for Inkscape and several only for sans-serif.

So I suggest to close this report.

Cannot reproduce the output shown in T40589#444977 on https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/File:Pictograph_aligned_and_similar_size.svg with any of the given thumbnail links.

Closing as resolved. (See also last comment.)
