We are making heavy use of flowtext in our svgs and convert them to pdf. Unfortunately the size of these pdfs is very huge because the text gets converted to vectors. Are there any plans to change that? Or maybe there is already a (commandline) option to take the text as it is and i missed it?
This isn't easy. The PDF transcoder will handle 'simple' text but for complex SVG text it resorts to outlines. The basic problem is that as I understand it, it isn't easy to go from a Java GlyphVector (which is what Batik generates) to PDF text.
