The CCS engine for the document is set in BridgeContext.initializeDocument(), which is called by org.apache.batik.bridge.GVTBuilder.build(). But it seems there is no way to set CCS engine from FOP classes(such as BatikElement). (I do not want to modify Batik source code).
>It also appears that you are trying to map just the flowText element. For the svg elements, FOP extension maps <svg> to SVGElement and all other tags to SVGObj. I am using the same approach for batik extensions: <flowText> to BatikElement and all other tags to BatikObj. BatikElement creates the root document for batik namespace. >The SVG specification is pretty clear that SVG elements must have a parent SVG element It seems Batik requires each child of SVG element must be SVG element( or belongs to same document). <svg> Batik DOM element is created through SVGDOMImplmentation, while <flowText> Batik DOM element is created through ExtensibleSVGOMImplementation. I have to have a different root document for all the batik extension elements, otherwise the system uses SVGDOMImplementation to create generic DOM element. > I think you really want to try and "fix" the existing SVG element mapping stuff in FOP. How to do this? I stuck in this problem now and do not know what to do the next. Can someone please help me implement this batik extension in FOP? Thanks a lot.
