<div><div>Sure, but I reproduce there are (I believe) two issues here : <div>1) justification is more complicated with webkit due to not (really) working optimizeLegibility in WebKit and the fact that WebKit handles poorly decimal in word-spacing and not at all in letter-spacing</div><div>2) due to kerning (I can send you a screenshot comparing in Photoshop two texts one over the other) / letter-spacing / word-spacing (?), lines are much longer in WebKit => hence, if you have for example "footnotes" as in this PDF, they don't get at the right place in the text (all the more so as if you have a PDF from an InDesign export, there may be "metrics" which cause some text to go over another — yet, you can always remove all metrics before exporting in PDF…it avoids part of the issue) </div><div><br></div><div>NB : I don't manage to get the fonts extracted to work, but I can send those to you in otf if you want (don't know if extraction is not working due to my installation ?) </div></div><div><br></div><div>PDF file : <a href="http://cl.ly/0L3g2I1r3G2a0T0o3622" style="color: rgb(0, 106, 227); ">BugWebkit.pdf</a></div></div> <div><br>-- <br>Clément Wehrung<br><div>06 88 10 65 91</div><br></div> <p style="color: #A0A0A8;">Le mercredi 26 octobre 2011 à 14:35, Clément Wehrung a écrit :</p> <blockquote type="cite" style="border-left-style:solid;border-width:1px;margin-left:0px;padding-left:10px;"> <span><div><div> <div><div><div>You can understand better the issue here (Firefox vs Safari on Mac/iOS)</div><div><br></div><a href="http://dev.nurves.com/pdf2html/-6.html" style="color: rgb(0, 106, 227); ">http://dev.nurves.com/pdf2html/-6.html</a><div><br></div></div><div>Cf. footnotes</div></div><div><br></div> <div><a href="http://cl.ly/3c1B2V1X2u2C2f0M2L0L">WebKit.png</a></div><div><a href="http://cl.ly/0Q111C3u2g3T2U1D3U2u">Firefox.png</a></div><div>-- <br>Clément Wehrung<br><div>06 88 10 65 91</div><br><br><br></div> <p style="color: #A0A0A8;">Le mercredi 26 octobre 2011 à 14:26, Clément Wehrung a écrit :</p><blockquote type="cite"><div> <span><div><div> <div><div>Hi Josh,<div><br></div><div>Thanks for all this. I'm already looking at the code now, but I've run into some issues with webkit rendering compared to Firefox (where it looks really amazing !). I know webkit has a bug with letter-spacing (does not take decimal into account) but there's more to it since text-rendering:optimizeLegibility; only partly works. I try to see how we could get text boxes not to end up one over the other.
