Getting rendered images of Chinese characters was how I originally
became interested in SVG. :-)

What do you mean by blurry?  I tried rasterising the document below into
a JPEG, and it seems OK to me.  There is an amount of anti-aliasing, but
I don't think it is blurry.  Now, if I set
text-rendering="geometricPrecision" then they become blurry (due to the
fact that Batik won't try to pixel align the glyphs).  If you set
text-rendering="optimizeLegibility" then the glyphs won't be
anti-aliased at all.

Try those options and see what difference it makes.
