v1.2.0

What's New

SVG Rasterization & Inline SVGs

• SVG data URIs in <img> tags now render in PNG and JPEG output (previously SVG-only)
• Inline <svg> elements are fully supported in all output formats
• Minimal SVG rasterizer with path, rect, circle, ellipse, polygon, stroke, and translate transform support
• Even-odd fill rule via sub-path XOR compositing

Gradient Rendering Overhaul

• Fixed gradient direction (was reversed vs CSS spec in PNG/JPEG)
• Linear RGB color interpolation with ordered dithering eliminates visible banding
• SVG gradients now use color-interpolation="linearRGB" to match PNG output

Tailwind Gradient Utilities

• bg-gradient-to-{t,tr,r,br,b,bl,l,tl} direction classes
• from-*, via-*, to-* gradient stop color classes
• Composes into background-image: linear-gradient(...) automatically

PNG/JPEG Rendering Fixes

• Fixed premultiplied alpha compositing — eliminates bright-edge artifacts on semi-transparent rounded rects
• Sub-pixel text positioning for better SVG/PNG parity
• 2x supersampled rounded corner masks for smoother curves
• Rounded borders now clip through the mask (fixes angular corners on small elements)
• RTL text shaping in PNG via ShapedTextToPath + vector.Rasterizer
• 4:4:4 chroma JPEG encoder prevents color shifts on dark backgrounds

Other Fixes

• HTML width/height attributes now map to CSS styles (like browsers)
• font-family CSS parsing correctly extracts first family from comma-separated fallback lists
• Open SVG subpaths implicitly closed for fill operations

Docs & Site

• Shared template constants between playground and examples
• Fullscreen image viewer with zoom, pan, and SVG/PNG/JPEG format switching
• New RTL (Arabic) and Tailwind gradient examples
• Fixed dependency claims — go-text/typesetting now listed
• Rate limit warning on playground
• curl example in rendering guide
