Scenes from an Acid Test

In our earlier Acid3 post, I mentioned that the final test we passed, test 79, was super tough. This test covered many details of SVG text layout and font support. To pass it, we had to fix many bugs. Unless you are a hardcore standards geek you may not find all these details exciting, but since we talked a bit about our other recent fixes, I thought I’d tell the story. This subtest was originally contributed by Cameron McCormack.
