The current version of SVG contains 3 pipelines: Simple polygons: path_storage -> conv_curve -> conv_transform -> conv_clip Strokes: path_storage -> conv_curve -> conv_stroke -> conv_transform -> conv_clip Contoured polygons: path_storage -> conv_curve -> conv_contour -> conv_transform -> conv_clip

But the good news is that conv_curve works pretty fast, at least stroking and clipping are much more time consuming tasks. The only obvious case when we can approximate the curves in the last step is drawing text. But again, when it‘s without stroking/outlining/contouring. > Also what exactly does conv_contour do? Exactly half of the work conv_stroke does. :-) It dilates or erodes polygons depending on the sign of the width. I used it to eliminate the defects when joining anti-aliased polygons:http://www.antigrain.com/img/polygon_join_defects.jpg> I hope you dont mind all these questions :) Of course I don‘t. Afterall I myself started cooking this porridge :-) > If so, doesnt this give the same result each time, > as its done before the > conv_transform? Yes, it does, at least seems to do :-) But the reality is more complex. Here‘s a contadiction. Yes, we could transform paths before approximating them with line segments. But conv_stroke and conv_contour require already decomposed path. So, the only case we can use this order (conv_transform -> conv_curve) is a simple filled polygon without a "border". But the situation is even worse. I use conv_clip that performs polygonal clipping. Such kind of a "vectorial" clipping can work with line segments only, so, the curves must be decomposed before clipping. Ideally it would be fine to decompose curves as late as possible, but if the order of the conversions is different solid and stroked paths will be inconsistent:http://www.antigrain.com/img/conv_order.gifEventually I decided to set my jaw and to convert the curves in the first pipeline step. Well, this is the whole idea of the custom pipelines - in certain cases you can use different conversion order for the sake of performance.
