SVG files are imported incorrectly.


Recommended Posts

I could not find the way to make mathematic formulas in this series of application, so I used online application that outputs formulas on SVG format.

But this application does not import these files correctly.

Other application: Adobe Illustrator CC / LibreOffice Draw could read this SVG formulas.

I think this issue needs to be fixed.

 

Attached files would help you:

1. Vector Image: Original formula on SVG format

2. PNG with a little bold formula text: Imported formula displayed on LibreOffice Draw

3. PNG with blue edged formula text: Imported formula displayed on Adobe Illustrator CC

4. PNG with black corner area: Imported formula displayed on Affinity Publisher V2 ( Affinity Designer V2 also had same image. )

 

Thank you.

Hi @pirochan_whwm,

Thanks for your report and our sincerest apologies for the delayed response here. We are exceptionally busy following the release of V2 and we thank you for your continued patience and understanding here.

I can confirm that I have replicated this issue with your file and have logged this with our developers to be resolved - I believe it is due to the 'transform="translate' values in the file, as there are some known issues in Affinity when using these.

I hope this helps :)

Oh my... I've spent the whole evening trying to figure out what's wrong with SVG formulas produced by MathJax (or downloaded from Wikipedia), and it turns out to be a bug!

I've tried to optimize and export the SVG file using Inkscape, but Affinity apps never display the SVG correctly.

What worked for me as a workaround was converting the SVG into a PostScript file (EPS), which Affinity can import without problems.

Also, please add LaTeX syntax support to Affinity Publisher. Even mainstream web apps like Notion empower us to use LaTeX for creating nice formulas.
