Title: RE: FW: Embedded JPEG prints as a black rectangle on an Astro-Med pri nter

Hi Thomas,
Yes I noticed SVGOMImageElement's attributeInitializer code change when I looked into where the onRequest attribute value had come from.

You are right that the old bug had nothing to do with the problem.

Happily there is a fix for my problem.
I used threshold in PaintShop to make sure that the JPEG has only pixels of pure black and pure white.
It then works a treat.

Case closed I think.

Thanks,
Patrick

    This was a bug in the Batik DOM implementation, it is fixed in
current CVS.  It also likely has nothing to do with the problem.

    I suspect the real issue has to do with the ColorModel the printer
uses with Java.  This has been on occasion a bit of a sticky wicket
for us,  unfortunately without access to the printer there isn't much
I can do.

    You could try using CVS Batik as I recently made a minor change
that could possibly improve your results here.
