Description Fredrik Arnerup 2003-03-10 12:35:12 UTC

When using "convert" to convert an svg file to a ps file with the
sv_SE locale, I get stuff like "12,000000" in the ps. This is not
valid postscript.
The explanation is that the sv_SE locale (among others) uses ','
instead of a decimal point.


Reproducible: Always
Steps to Reproduce:
1. convert foo.svg foo.eps
2. gs foo.eps

just commited imagemagick 5.5.6, check if it fixes your problems plz, if not i'd say this is a upstream bug.

Comment 2 Fredrik Arnerup 2003-04-24 16:51:44 UTC

5.5.6 is ok, but then I don't seem to be able to reproduce the bug in 5.5.5.3 either. 
Well ...
