.ai save: stroked type keeps its cap, join and miter limit

Browse Source 
The text document writer wrote a type stroke's paint and weight but not
its cap, join or miter limit, which .ai import reads since #6500 (keys
61, 62 and 64). A file saved here and opened again came back with butt
caps, miter joins and a miter limit of 10, and the save reported those
attributes as left out. A stroked run now writes the three keys,
numbered as PostScript numbers caps and joins, with the miter limit as
import takes it back (1 to 500, else 10), and they no longer count as
lost. A run without a stroke no longer counts them as lost either: they
draw nothing.

Follow-up to #6472.

| 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` save: stroked type writes its stroke's cap, join and miter limit into the text document (keys 61, 62 and 64, as `.ai` import reads them since #6500), so they come back when the file opens again and no longer count among the attributes of type left out; a run without a stroke doesn't count them either, as they draw nothing. Tests `ai_editing::tests::type_comes_back_as_type`, `an_unstroked_run_with_a_stroke_style_loses_nothing` (follow-up to #6472) |
| 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` and EPS import, PDF import, SVG export and `.ai` save: type with a Horizontal Scale other than 100% and tracking or manual kerning is spaced as a `.ai`'s own page spaces it. Layout now measures tracking and manual kerning in thousandths of the em as the scale draws it (see type-parity.md, same date); they were added at the full em, so such type drifted from the page letter by letter. A `.ai`'s page writes that type's character spacing as the tracking itself in a text space as wide as the scale, which PDF scales by it (ISO 32000-1 §9.4.4). In 224 users' files (used locally, never committed), 93 render differently. Of the 25 whose render moved by more than 1% of its pixels against the page, 23 came closer. The note on the type differing from the page shows a smaller share in 5 files (11.0% to 4.4% at most) and a larger one in 2 (by 0.2 to 0.3 points). 9 more envelopes of type open live (113 to 122 of 203, none fewer in any file), and no file switched between its layers and its PDF part. PDF import: the tracking of horizontally scaled type is the file's `Tc` in thousandths of its size (it was that times the scale), the glyphs where they were (test `tests::text_placement::character_spacing_in_horizontally_scaled_type_is_the_files_tc`). SVG export writes the letter spacing in thousandths of the font size it writes (the vertical scale), so type scaled uniformly keeps its spacing in a viewer (test `text_layout::spacing_in_uniformly_scaled_type_takes_the_scale`); tracked type scaled horizontally alone still differs a little there, as before. A `.ai` saved here writes the same values as before; VectorCraft now lays them out as the file's own PDF part draws them. Scores and estimates unchanged. |
| 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` and EPS import: stroked type in an envelope with Distort Appearance is tried mapped from its glyphs grown by as far as its strokes paint along a side (half the weight of a centred stroke), without what miter joins add at corners, for a stroke on its appearance or on a group round it as well as its characters'; it was mapped from its bounds with strokes, which reach as far as a miter join may at a corner. Tests `ai::envelope::tests::stroked_type_is_tried_mapped_from_its_glyphs_grown_by_half_its_stroke`, `type_with_a_character_stroke_is_tried_mapped_from_its_bounds_with_strokes`, `a_stroke_on_a_group_of_type_grows_the_box_by_half_its_weight` (part of #3179) |
| 2026-11-11 | minor | `.ai` and EPS import: a warp of type (an envelope made with a warp around type) whose own warp, VectorCraft's, doesn't draw as its drawn art is tried again as a mesh envelope on the warp grid the file saves, with the same drawn-art check, budget and page comparison as #6421: where it passes, the type is editable and keeps the file's shape, and the warp's settings (style, bend) are lost. A second try is only made while more checks are left than there are envelopes of type and warped text objects still to come. Type with strokes in an envelope with Distort Appearance on is also tried mapped from its box with strokes, where the size the file saves for it doesn't already give that box (a rule chosen by measuring real files). An envelope's grid (warp, mesh or top object) now reads its way round from all its rows and columns, not its first row alone: a mesh bent far round (its end columns leaning more than halfway over) reads the way it runs, not turned a quarter round, and a grid symmetric about its middle reads the same wherever it is on the page.
