Hi Chandra,
Just to be a little more specific, there is no 'specific' font required, but most fonts don't include Chinese, so you will need to fine a font that does include them.
For systems like Windows/Mac Java/Batik will automatically have access to all installed fonts and will in fact search every font on the system before it resorts to using '?'. On UNIX it will search every font Java 'knows about', I don't recall the details of how to add fonts to Java under UNIX (I think in involves installing in a particular location or editing a properties file - search the net for details). Alternatively if you know where the font is you can use CSS @font-face or the SVG XML equivalent <font-face> element to point directly at a True Type font` file from your SVG (in which case it doesn't need to be installed, on any platform).
Chandra:
Thanks for your reply. I tried to raster image with Chinese characters it showing '?' character for each Chinese character. Is there any specific fonts required to raster? If yes, Could you please give from where and how to get those fonts.

I have Arial Unicode MS installed, which covers the CJK area of Unicode. I think it is that font that is being selected in my case. Arial Unicode MS comes with MS Office, I think. Otherwise just search around on the Internet for some free Chinese fonts. You should be able to find some.
