RE: ACTION-2932: Check with patrick about whether IE ran against the latest version of the test (SVG Working Group)

Hi Patrick,

Actually that is the correct image.

The test may not work in any browser at the moment, which is strange. As far as I recall,
Opera passed this in the Tiny 1.2 time frame.

The reference image is wrong.

The Devanagari should be hanging off the hanging baseline, this image appears to
have been changed from what used to be there (showing incorrect behaviour now).

>Help is appreciated

This test has been debated a number of times over the years. It all comes down
to whether an implementation supports baseline sets for a font as required by
OpenType and SVG Fonts or assumes the Western single baseline model
or GDI fonts.

The relevant section in XSL-FO which describes expected behaviour is this:

http://www.w3.org/TR/xsl/#common-font-properties

That W3C Recommendation describes mixed baselines and how they align. This
is also supposed to be the model in CSS and SVG.

So, the reference image in the 1.1F2 test is correct, and it is also the intended
result. See also:

http://dev.w3.org/SVG/profiles/1.2T/test/htmlEmbedHarness/text-align-08-t.html

which is testing the same behaviour using an SVG font (and has an almost
correct image, with just a white-space error in it).
