Commons SVG Checker links to m:SVG_fonts:

It will be rendered with minor differences by Wikimedia's SVG renderer. See https://meta.wikimedia.org/wiki/SVG_fonts for details.

which includes this file.

Either File:Meta SVG fonts.svg uses not available fonts, or c:MediaWiki:CommonsSvgChecker.js is outdated?

At least one of them should be corrected.

But in this Font-Sample I would only use recomended fonts wihtout "any" problems, and not fonts which might be available.

Hey JoKalliauer, I would open an bug report, because on the one hand, it is absolutely annoying for editors if fonts get removed undocumented without any replacement/fallback. And on the other hand we can see here the removed fonts are still present, so the information from m:SVG_fonts are not fully trusty!?

I think Helvetica is very similar to:
  • Khmer OS; Khmer OS Battambang; Khmer OS Bokor; Khmer OS Content; Khmer OS Fasthan; Khmer OS Freehand; Khmer OS Metal Chrieng; Khmer OS Muol; Khmer OS System
  • Garuda
  • Loma
and it gets substituted with one of the Khmer OS-font

Helvetica and Nimbus Sans L are for shure rendered the same. I'm not sure with which font, maybe with Nimbus Sans L, as you said.  — Johannes Kalliauer - Talk | Contributions 23:11, 15 December 2017 (UTC)[reply]
