Description

Steps to reproduce:

Download Delius-Regular.ttf from http://www.dafont.com/delius.font

Convert it to svg with batik-ttf2svg.jar (I used the Mac build shipping with Squiggle below):

java -jar /Applications/Squiggle.app/Contents/Resources/batik-ttf2svg.jar DeliusRegular.ttf -id Delius -testcard -o Delius.svg

The output font now has two sharp edges on the lowercase "e" and "o" characters.

When rendering the same font to svg with font2web.com, they do not:
