[08:24:19] <Nemo_bis>	 Oh, today GCI announcements :)
[12:35:38] <Jhs>	 hello everybody. could someone help me understand why there's nothing in https://no.wikimedia.org/wiki/Special:Gadgets even though I've created https://no.wikimedia.org/wiki/MediaWiki:Gadgets-definition ?
[16:50:49] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Hi
[16:50:56] <ShakespeareFan00>	 I have a number of source files in EPS format
[16:51:15] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Commons/Mediawiki doesn;t use EPS
[16:51:24] <ShakespeareFan00>	 So an attempt was made to convert to SVG
[16:51:52] <ShakespeareFan00>	 which is fine, except that the Inkscape import does a rather roundabout route via  Ghostscript and a PDF import...
[16:52:05] <ShakespeareFan00>	 (on files which probbaly aren't that clean to begin with
[16:56:04] <ShakespeareFan00>	 So my frist question is as follows... Is there a way to render EPS in mediawiki?
[16:56:06] <Dereckson>	 We need to have something runnable, a sequence of scripts, and yes, we can personalize it by extension, so that would be possible;
[16:56:45] <ShakespeareFan00>	 The alternative would be to get out the bullwhip and ask the Ghostscript programmer to add SVG output....
[16:57:10] <ShakespeareFan00>	 (and remember that they are ghostscript programmers not GIMP progammers ;) )
[16:58:46] <niedzielski>	 ShakespeareFan00: I don't have any of the answers you're looking for but thought I would quickly mention that Inkscape can quickly convert EPS to SVG via command line. If I recall correctly, it looks like "inkscape foo.eps -l foo.svg".
[16:58:57] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Yes
[16:59:06] <ShakespeareFan00>	 But the conversion leaves a LOT to be desired
[16:59:28] <ShakespeareFan00>	 I have had to "clean up"  nearly ALL the conversions before they were acceptable quality wise
[16:59:51] <Dereckson>	 GhostScript is rather old
[16:59:56] <ShakespeareFan00>	 And of course the issues with SVG rendering on Wikikmedia projects are in Phabricator
[16:59:57] <Dereckson>	 main development were in 90s
[17:00:16] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Dereckson:  Last release was in October 2015...
[17:00:31] <ShakespeareFan00>	 and it is at least AGPL ( Affero)
[17:01:33] <Dereckson>	 yeah it's still maintained
[17:04:38] <ShakespeareFan00>	 https://phabricator.wikimedia.org/T126238?workflow=create
[17:05:02] <ShakespeareFan00>	 I really do need some feedback
[17:05:36] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Because otherwise I would be able to get a lot further on something at Wikisource,  
[17:05:52] <ShakespeareFan00>	 the EPS->PNG tools I have aren't ideal either
[17:06:23] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Ifranview's aliasing isn't good... and GSView doesn't even have a full color PNG output option :(
[17:32:52] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Of course the other PROBLEM the EPS files have is that they have mebbed propriatry font data :(
[17:33:03] <ShakespeareFan00>	 *embedded
[17:33:11] <ShakespeareFan00>	 Well I tried
[17:33:13] <ShakespeareFan00>	 :(
[17:43:50] <jzerebecki>	 is login to wikitech broken for anyone else?
