>                 Key: BATIK-1306
>                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/BATIK-1306
>             Project: Batik
>          Issue Type: New Feature
>            Reporter: Dhom Bios
>            Priority: Minor

> Alignment-baseline and dominant-baseline attributes are quite useful for 
> ensuring that several text elements are top aligned when the svg is created 
> programmatically, yet Apache Batik does not support them. Even though, there 
> are alternatives like using the dy attribute to obtain a similar effect, they 
> are usually font and size dependant.
> As a consequence, this forces the use of a trial-error approach for adjusting 
> complex layouts requiring a significant amount of time that could be avoided 
> by using those attributes to align the text elements to the top of their 
> container. Therefore, projects like Jasper Reports, which uses this library 
> for rendering SVGs generated from javascript 
> (https://github.com/TIBCOSoftware/jasperreports/issues/191#issuecomment-847070399),
>  would highly benefit from the obtained simplification
