You completely missed his point. And your "darker" borders are also blockier and jagged. You went through all this trouble to use vector graphics and then you hack it so that it looks crappy like the original. And I don't agree with H.G.'s suggestion to change the stroke width either. I have worked very, very hard on these graphics and I'd appreciate them not being messed up.

You now have all tools in place to fix the real issue. I don't understand why you not only won't do it, you will not even respond when we mention it. I will try again:

Your desire for darker boarders is because of YOUR SETTINGS. You want to compensate for this, but you are making the graphics look worse for other people. You are zooming in and so the image loses clarity. The point of vector graphics like SVG is that you can zoom forever without loss. If you want to render PNG, then you have a limited resolution. But if you generate a higher resolution then some zooming can be performed without loss. Render your image at double size and then use the height and width of the IMG tag to scale it back down. If you do this, then you can zoom up to 200% without any loss. It will look good with your setting and everyone else's as well.
