I too am having this problem on Mac OS X while Linux and Win2000 are working great. The Batik browser also dumps a ton of code to the console when the image is rendering. I took a look at Apple's Release notes on MRJ 3.0 for OS X and it states the following: Compatibility issues to note: * Drawing shapes over each other when anti-aliasing is on may cause different results than in Java 1.1. For instance, drawing a white line on top of a black line will not completely erase the line; the compositing rules leave some gray pixels around the edges. (The JDK "Clock" applet exhibits this glitch.) Also, drawing text multiple times in the same place will cause the partially-covered pixels along the edges to get darker and darker, making the text look smudged. * Java on Mac OS X will never have pixel for pixel match with the Sun Java2D implementation, especially when anti-aliasing is on (see the GUI Customization section below for information on how to disable anti-aliasing for ) . Quartz's anti-aliasing algorithms for both line art and text are different than Sun's default implementations, so the rendered pixels will not match exactly. Apple is using the Quartz graphics system because it improves drawing quality over other platforms' Java2D implementations. Known bugs: * There are a few situations in which JPEG images won't be read properly. * Using a Shape object for drawing perfectly horizontal or vertical lines (rather than calling drawLine()) will hit a serious bug that hangs the Java process, and may even require a reboot. The workaround is to use drawLine() in these cases, which is the more common approach. The full release notes can be found here: http://developer.apple.com/techpubs/macosx/ReleaseNotes/JavaGMWebReleaseNote s.html I'm still new Java2D so I'm not profess that I now this is the bug. But form what I've read, this sounds like it may be a problem with Apples Java2D implementation. Could this be correct? This could be a HUGE problem for Apple if this is the case.
