I hit this issue as well - I've got a Pull Request in for a fix, but you may be able to work around it by adding this CSS to your page stylesheet:

    body > div:last-child > span + img {
      display: inline !important;
    }

In brief, the library measures text size information by appending a span containing the text with all the CSS applied and then a blank image, and then measuring how much the text displaces the image to determine the height of the text. The <img> element that gets appended doesn't set its own display property, so if you're setting the display to block for every image in the document it will add padding to the test image and incorrectly measure the height of the text, which results in the extra padding in the output.

The workaround is a little flimsy since it may cause unintended issues if you have images you're cloning that also match that CSS selector, but it works correctly in your jsfiddle.

uh, yes in fact I found a work around that similar to yours.

img {
    display: initial !important;
}

I think it’s safer in any browsers.

Legend! You have no idea how many hours I spent, how many solutions that I tried and I also tried out basically every single one of those export image packages in the market, and each of them has some other issues that I just ended up come back to html2canvas.

It would be very helpful if this could be addressed within the program(html2canvas).
