Yes, I'd prefer both left and right edges to be aligned. It would be nice too if the top and bottom lined up with the foot. > To my eye, the text looks aligned.

Or > is it the right edge that is causing you trouble? When I open my new .svg in Inkscape (on FC3 and Ubuntu 5.04), the right edges are wildly different and don't even fit on the canvas anymore. When I open Jame's original, it's not so bad, but they really are not aligned. But if the format or application does not attempt to constrain them then there's no way that they should be expected to line up, because fonts are different everywhere. > Cheers, > Dave. > > Murray Cumming a Ãcrit : > > I tried to use Adobe Illustrator to make the text line up vertically, > > but it's not much better in Illustrator. > > > > Here's the Illustrator .ai of my attempt, with exports as .eps, .svg > > and .png: > > http://www.murrayc.com/temp/gnomemarketing/gnome_member_logo_murrayc/ > > > > Gimp renders the svg identically to Illustrator but Inkscape arranges > > the text differently.
