I have an old map project that I've updated for the new year with Inkscape .46 - I then send it off to the printers as a PDF. However this time the old method for PDF export has been removed and replaced by cairo. It works, but the font kerning is all wrong - the letters seem to be spaced too far apart.
It looks as if the kerning is magnified (almost doubled). Letter pairs that need to be closer are too close, letter pairs that need to be wider are too wide.
It could be an issue with relative vs. absolute kerning information, e.g., that the relative info is taken to be absolute or vice versa.
