I got the same exception as what Swapan got. I think the problem is just what Thomas mentioned: "Is it possible that you are mis-mapping the elements from FOP? the batik:flowText element needs to become a bati.extension.svg.FlowTextElement the others need to be mapped likewise. Just mapping them to generic elements won't work."
My question is how to map the element to batik.extension.svg.FlowTextElement. Once I set up the BatikBridgeExtension and BatikDomExtension, getBridge() should automatically map the DOM element to FlowTextElement. But through debug, I saw the element is generic element not FlowTextElement. Can you please tell me what I am missing? Thank you very much.

I don't know, The error you are getting is indicative of passing a non Batik DOM node into Batik.
