Description: Inserted SVG Logo into Writer document shows some letters of the text out of proportion. Steps to Reproduce: 1. Insert SVG Logo into Writer document Actual Results: Text in SVG Logo has some letters showing out of proportion. Expected Results: Nice smooth text, in semi-circle path. Reproducible: Always User Profile Reset: No Additional Info: For me, this just showed up in the 24.2.5.2 release, which I installed a day or two ago. This SVG is a logo I put in all the books that I work on. It's always worked fine, for many years, until now. I've rendered the text to path in Inkscape, and it works as expected that way, but it seems to be a bug in SVG text rendering. I have not tested other OS.

My wording is not so clear in the "Additional Info." What I meant in the last sentence is that I'm working around this problem for now, by making a copy of the logo and rendering the text to a path in Inkscape. This modified logo works correctly. Of course, it does not involve text-rendering this way.
