Glen, The reason that the svg portion does not work in Batik Squiggle is because of the namespace. The embedded svg needs "svg:" prefix and probably "batik:" prefix for flowText elements.
Attached please find a svg file that works in squiggle. I tried three different ways to embed it into a fo file. But all failed. Here are the fop result: (1) embedding_flowtext.fo, with not svg:/batik: prefix FOP output: [INFO] 1.0dev [WARNING] Unknown formatting object ^svg [WARNING] Unknown formatting object ^title [WARNING] Unknown formatting object ^g [WARNING] Unknown formatting object ^text Process terminated with exit code 0 (2) embedding_flowtext1.fo with svg: prefix, without batik: prefix and embedding_flowtext2.txt with both svg: and batik: prefix FOP output: [INFO] 1.0dev [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! [ERROR] findHyphenPoss: problem! FOP program keeps print out this error. Never stop. Can you please tell me how to embed the svg into the fo file? Thanks a lot.

Next, I ran Batik's Squiggle SVG browser on this test.svg--I got the same undesired result within Squiggle--a yellow rectangle--as you got in the PDF document. So the problem does not appear to be with FOP--at least on this issue--but with either your SVG or with Batik. FOP uses Batik for SVG--if your SVG portion is not working with Batik/Squiggle, it won't work with FOP. Batik is another library, another team--I don't handle it. In this debugging, what I need next from you is an SVG file using Batik extension elements that runs fine in Squiggle, but when put within FOP <fo:instream-foreign-object>, won't run. If you can do that, then we can resume debugging within FOP. If you *can't* get there--i.e., Squiggle isn't doing anything with those extension elements--then you may need to start directing some questions to the Batik user list to find out what the problem is.
