#59 SVG image is empty

[Sergio Callegari]

Hi,

I am working with texmaths 0.41 and Libreoffice 5.0.3 on ubuntu linux 15.10. I am recently encountering a weird issue, with some equations being properly rendered to png, but not to svg.

I have managed to create a little test case.

With the following preamble:

\usepackage[T1]{fontenc}
\usepackage{newtxtext, newtxmath}
\usepackage{amsmath}
\usepackage{amssymb}
\usepackage[usenames]{color}
\def\bm#1{\boldsymbol{#1}}
\usepackage{mdwtab}
% Uncomment these lines for colored equations
\definecolor{fgcolor}{RGB}{36,66,91}
\definecolor{bgcolor}{RGB}{255,255,255}
%\pagecolor{bgcolor}
\color{fgcolor}

try rendering

\iint

it works just fine with png mode, but it creates an empty box in svg mode.

The issue comes from the dvisvgm utility.
I have passed the bug report to the author of dvisvgm.

[Roland Baudin]

dvisvgm's author, Martin Gieseking, has fixed the bug and the fix will be part of the next dvisvgm release, he said.
So, please, be patient...

Thanks for the update! And good to hear it is fixed upstream! Let's hope it also propagates to ubuntu rapidly. I have noticed they are 2 releases late right now.

This is fixed now.
