Hi all 

I've been using FOP recently to embed dynamically-created imagery of map data into PDF 
documents, in a JSP environment. I'd like to add some features to the top of those 
images, where the data has 
been derived from a database in SVG format. The Batik rasterizer looks very 
interesting to me in this respect. However, the bits that I can't immediatley see from 
the website are

1. Is there anyway that I can use the rasterizer to "add" the SVG-generated image to 
my existing map image ? Maybe taking my existing image as input. As I mentioned, I 
have an existing image and I'd just 
like to draw the SVG on top of that. 
If the output is to HTML, I could probably just make two images and use CSS to put one 
on top of the other, assuming that the Batik rasterizer lets me specify transparency. 
However, I'm not sure that I 
could put one image on top of the other in XSL-FO.
I can manipulate the two images in the way that I want with netpbm but that would mean 
doing something nasty as a system call.

2. Does anyone have any examples of invoking Batik in JSP ? 

Thanks

Chris
