Distorted text following path
#8
Thanks for the file, that really helped.

From observation, not the 16 bit depth, or the font, or the -2 line spacing. It is the center-justification. Edit: Or maybe not, just tried in a Gimp 2.8, same distortion left -justify or center-justify. A mystery.

Looks like it is the path, this using a script to generate the circular path, the new path active (red) over original (blue)

   

There is another solution. One of ofnuts many plugins ofn-remove-tangents. Applied that gives a new 'Cleaned' path (works here)
same place as the ofn-text-along-path plugin http://sourceforge.net/projects/gimp-pat...s/scripts/

and while you are there try the ofn-path-to-shape plugin for really good circular paths.
