Tiny tiny icons after upgrading to 0.5.0

[hacker112]

Icons became very very tiny after upgrading from 0.4.3 to 0.5.0

version 0.4.3:

version 0.5.0:

grunt options:

        webfont: {
            icons: {
                src: 'app/img/icons/*.svg',
                dest: 'app/css/icons',
                options: {
                    types: 'woff',
                    stylesheet: 'scss',
                    relativeFontPath: 'icons/',
                    engine: 'node'
                }
            }
        },

Example svg:

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<!-- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 16.0.4, SVG Export Plug-In . SVG Version: 6.00 Build 0)  -->
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">
<svg version="1.1" id="Layer_1" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink" x="0px" y="0px"
     width="32.112px" height="40px" viewBox="0 0 32.112 40" enable-background="new 0 0 32.112 40" xml:space="preserve">
<polygon points="0,0 0,40 32.112,20 "/>
</svg>

Make your icons something like 1000px.

This is obviously a bug and not a question. It worked fine before, so it is something that has broken in the last update.

I now took the time time to check what happened in the code between 0.4.8 and 0.5.0.
There is an option that is called normalize (that seems to be undocumented in the Readme).

The code is changed from

 normalize: options.normalize !== false,

to

 normalize: options.normalize === true,

Which meant that in 0.4.8 normalize was the true by default and in 0.5.0 it was false by default. I see nothing about this change in the Changelog.

I also see that the all icons are rendered properly anymore, but I will create a separate issue for that.

It’s undocumented because it’s available only for the Fontforge engine. If you can make output more consistent between two engines, I’ll be happy to merge your pull request. Related issue: #222.

[hacker112]

I am using the node engine (not fontforge engine) and normalize has an effect in with the node engine. Did you mean the other way around?

[sapegin]

You’re right. But as I remember it’s not the same in node and fontforge engines ;-|

I don’t use web fonts anymore and can’t spend a lot of time on the project. So if you want to help feel free to do it.

[hacker112]

Aha, I understand :-)
If I find the time I would be glad to help. Then I also need to understand why icons are getting rendered worse (or not at all) for each version and fix that ;)

For node engine it’s better to start from updating svgicons2svgfont: they’ve changed an API so it’s not that easy but it could fix some problems because the version used by grunt-webfont is very old.
