Thanks Mr DeWeese

As I am very new to SVG and Batik I didn't fully understand your
explanation.  If you don't mind could you please explain in detail?

Also I can see that opacity operations end up rasterizing. 

Thanks
Shan

Hi Shan,

    There are quite a number of SVG features that need to be rasterized
for PDF. Like almost all filter effects, also some opacity operations
end up rasterizing (some of these could theoretically be avoided I
think).
