Display problems in Firefox and conversion problems in Acrobat
Hi,
I've some problems with a inkscape graphics. I've running 0.44 on winXP. Inkscape displays the graphic as I want. Firefox crashes on the svg completely ("The memory could not be read"). I've also exported that graphic as pdf but but Acrobat reader 7.0 crashes as well ( a number value is out of range). Here are both files:
https://perswww.kuleuven.ac.be/~u0049353/svg/map.svg https://perswww.kuleuven.ac.be/~u0049353/svg/map.pdf
I hope anyone can me to find out whats going wrong!
Thanks Wolfgang

Hi Wolfgang,
I've had a look at your files and the first thing I came across was the 'copyright' character on line 1646 of your SVG file, which isn't allowed in the UTF-8 encoding. It wouldn't pass through the validator at http://jiggles.w3.org/svgvalidator/ until I removed it. When it did pass through it failed, but all Inkscape SVGs seem to fail that! I know that has no bearing on your problem though - sorry! :)
I've tried exporting your file to PDF with various layers hidden. Your problem seems to lie in the text layers of your document - "beschriftung" and "caves". When they are hidden, it exports and opens in Acrobat fine. When your SVG is saved as "Plain SVG", the validator complains about "The <text> element does not allow a <path> element as a child" at line 850. When that's removed it validates, but still crashes Firefox.
I will look again, but am now scratching my head... :( Hope you find the problem. Brendan

I don't understand how any Unicode codepoint could be illegal in UTF-8, as long as it's encoded properly (as UTF-8, not ISO 8859-1).
Anyway, a workaround would be to use © in the source instead.

Thanks to Ulf, the problem with Acrobat could be solved: there were miterlimits < 1 which is not allowed.
But Firefox still crashes on the file. I've uploaded a new version: https://perswww.kuleuven.ac.be/~u0049353/svg/map_new.svg
Cheers Wolfgang

It seems that this is a bug in Firefox and not a problem of Inkscape. Wolfgang

Can you make sure that Firefox has a bug filed against it for this issue?
Thanks, Bryce

My apologies, you are correct. The symbol was encoded correctly (U+00A9) and therefore not illegal as UTF-8. The validator didn't like it though and deemed the value beginning with 0xA9 illegal. Not sure if this is because it's a strict XML parser which requires entities to be defined before use. But I've had a look around and it appears SVG allows multi-lingual characters (according to Adobe). I will have to read the specs a bit more closely. :)
Cheers, Brendan
Hi,
at least it was accepted as a bug https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=346673
the problem with firefox occurs when marker-start and fill="none" is in the same style properties.
I don't have much knowledge of these internal things of svg, I'm simply a (stupid) user and I want to draw GIS-based maps in Inkscape (and firefox is the only other software which can display svg on my computer).
