I tried to setup the OutputStream with UTF-8, but it doesn't change anything. It is really a minor problem, because the output SVG file can be opened and shows what it must, but it is slighly different from the original, at least when Unicode / non ASCII characters are used...
I enclose a Java file showing the result (can be tested with the fontArabic example in the samples directory). I used it with the 1.5 version of Batik. The first file to set in the test is the input file (for example: fontArabic), the second is the output directory for the output files (two SVG files are generated: one by using a UTF-8 encoding, another with US-ASCII). I think that the two classes involved in this process are those that are used in SVG generation : XmlWriter, and in SVG Transcoding (OutputManager). >> I embed my fonts in the SVG file, but as some characters are not in the ASCII range, I use Unicode definition as in the >> fontArabic.svg sample.

Take a look at OutputStreamWriter.
