Comment #12 on issue 2658 by address@hidden: wrong stem rendering  
(inconsistent thickness)

Concerning comment #10:

Well, the original problem was about how pdfs display and print.  I find  
the improved ghostscript png export a nice addition, but in my opinion the  
most important thing is to have good-looking pdfs.  In this regard, stem  
rendering hasn't improved (and in case of Poppler it got rather worse).

Here are screenshots showing how the output looks in Adobe Reader:

a few interesting things:
- LedgerLine behaviour changed, and i don't mean the roundedness.  This  
surprises me because i thought that LedgerLines aren't rounded rectangles.   
You may notice that without your patch Ledgers display inconsistently in  
Adobe Reader, while with your patch they seem to be ok.  In case of Okular,  
there's a slight improvement as well, but rather in positioning.
- intermediate values of grey are now used.  Previously at this zoom level  
all stems were totally black; either 1 pixel or 2 pixel wide - now some  
stems (e.g. 3rd one in 2nd line) are displayed as 1 line black and 1 line  
grey).

I'll test new patchset asap.
