Random(?) tiny fonts in EPS export.
Last modified: 2005-06-10 13:48:12 UTC
Please describe the problem: I use dia to produce a lot of flowchart / UML diagrams. I add the diagrams to LaTeX documents by using the export to EPS command line options e.g. "dia overview.dia -t eps -e overview.eps". It seems that some of the text in the exported file is intermittently set to be extremely small. Using the GUI and selecting File->Export sometimes works better, but not always. Steps to reproduce: 1. Load the attached dia file (test.dia) 2. View the file in dia - looks okay. 3. Run dia -t eps -e overview.eps (or -t eps-pango) 4. View the eps output - it probably has a number of very small fonts. 5. Use file->export in the dia GUI to export the same file to eps - this time it will probably work okay, but this doesn't always happen. Actual results: The exported EPS file has some lines of text rendered in a very small font. Expected results: The EPS file should appear the same as the file when viewed in dia. Does this happen every time? Other information: I am using dia 0.94, compiled with Fink unstable on Mac OS X 10.4.1 and also using the dia-installer version for Win32... the bug appears on both implementations.

Step 3. should read: 3. Run dia test.dia -t eps -e test.eps (or -t eps-pango)
Can't reproduce with current cvs, this may be fixed but is dup anyway. http://bugzilla.gnome.org/reports/product-mostfrequent.cgi?product=dia *** This bug has been marked as a duplicate of 153609 ***
