Dear Genies,
Currently I am in R&D and doing some research in PDF and SVG.
Especially I am trying to find a solution to convert SVG into PDF.
When I did a research on the Web I came across that one module of Batik
is also doing the same thing (Rasterizer).
Q1) In SVG to PDF Conversion, is that the end result a print ready PDF ?
Q2) When converting the SVG into PDF, the Batik is uncompressing the
image data and creating the PDF with that raw data. So it is increasing
the PDF's size by many times. For example 8 kb SVG converted to 1.8 meg
PDF.
Any idea to compress the images in the output pdf when converting the
SVG into PDF.
Q3)
When converting SVG to PDF, the Tiff-CMYK and JPEG-CMYK are not
supported by Batik.
I had one SVG which is containing an image as I shown below.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------
<g transform="matrix(0.0000 -108.0025 -95.0422 0.0000 560.9800
563.2600)">
<image height="1" width="1" xlink:href="someCMYK.jpg" />
</g>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------
If I open this SVG in any SVG Viewer I can't see this image because SVG
spec is not supporting CMYK colour modal.
But if I convert this SVG to PDF it should create a PDF with this image
in it. But batik failed to do so.

Then I have tried with one Tiff-CMYK image.

<image height="1" width="1" xlink:href="1-Tiff-CMYK-CMYK.tif" />
</g>
------------------------------------------------------------------------
------------------------------------------------------------------------
--------------------
and I got the error, please see the attachment for error message.
To do all these tests I am using the command line
java -jar batik-rasterizer.jar -m application/pd vertright.svg
Thanks for your help so far.
