I have been hoping to use SVG for printed reports.  I need clean text and line output 
to be meet the users expectations.  Batik seems perfect for my use but I ran into a 
problem.  I used the stroke:rgb(0,0,0) command (which I don't have to use).  It caused 
the text and lines in the printout to have dithered edges.  The appearance is that of 
wiggly lines and edges of text.  With Batik 1.0 the effect is smaller than with 
previous versions but it is still presentt.  When I remove the command, the printing 
is much better.

Am I doing something wrong?

This file prints with fuzzy edges

This file prints cleanly.  The only difference is that the stroke:rgb(0,0,0) command 
is missing
