Hi again, pls see attachment svg files (unfortunately marked up by illustrator)

svg_link2.svg has a xlink directive that "embeds" rectangle.svg  within the caller 
file. Ideally I would like to be able to rasterize both files by calling the batik 
rasterizer on svg_link2.svg

ref gifs vs png: I agree there is nothing wrong with png's - I am just wondering 
whether batik will provide this support now that the rules of the game have changed

Kind regards

   Your terminology is a little weird.  Batik can certainly parse
an SVG file that uses the 'image' element or 'use' element to
reference multiple svg image files.  I'm not sure what you mean by
'series of source files'.  Perhaps you are confusing xlink with
xinclude?

    It would probably help to provide a cut down example of your
problem (as a zip file or something).

   What is wrong with 8bit PNG?  Essentially all browsers support this
now.
   Adding new output formats is pretty easy if you have the code
to turn a BufferedImage into a file.  In fact I think someone
did something with the ACME encoder.
