Bug ( I think)

[Paul Carr]

I’m fairly certain Batik scales A4 images down slightly meaning that the resulting printout is incorrect. I'm working on a project where we need to print to various paper sizes accurately( i.e. to stick a persons name into a box on a pre printed Certificate) I was determined to use SVG, but this issue is stopping me from proceeding.   To reproduce : (1)use inkscape to create an A4 portrait image with a 48pt "X" in each corner of the page. (2)save (3)open file in squiggle (the top right "X" has already moved to the left) (4)print file to A4 with zero margins   results:- the "X" at the top left is correctly positioned the "X"'s at the bottom have moved up slightly the "X" at the top right has moved left slightly   You can actually notice the problem in squiggle before it even comes to printing it...the top right "X" is visibly further left.   I also took the latest SVN, same problem, This is very urgent for me, I'd love to use batik in this new project and have a couple of days left to give my technical recommendations....  If anyones seen this before or knows where I’m going wrong please let me know.     Best Regards Paul.   (P.S)  I’ve attached a standalone java app to reproduce and the SVG file I used.
