Hi all,

I want to simplify the generation of application images. Typically those application images contain common parts (e.g. a user-symbol) to make it easier for the application user to recognize related tasks. If such a common part changes (e.g. I want to modify the used user-symbol), currently all application images need to be updated. If one needs to do this by hand, it's no fun. Now my question:

Is it possible to (ab)use SVG and Batik's rasterizer to render application images from existing raster-images (common parts)?

Yes, take a look at the SVG 'image' element. It can reference raster content (JPEG and PNG is required).

Is it possible to create (semi)transparent png files with the rasterizer?

Yes, this is the default for PNG. It does not normally generate pallete PNG (and if you tell it to it doesn't generate alpha - this makes palletization really hard...).
