Hi Antonio,
I had a look at your 2 PDFs. The difference is that in the 1.6 example
the text stays text and isn't converted to geometry. In the SVN version
every character is converted to path geometry which bloats the file. Its
still vector, but its not text and therefore text is not selectable. I
converted your file with batik-rasterizer on the mac (with the SVN
version) and get the same results, although the resulting file is not
82k but 50k.
I remember that there was a trick to force text to stay text and also to
embed fonts in the PDF. But I cannot quickly find it. I think it was
related to FOP.
Maybe someone else can comment.

Hi,
You can download a zip file at http://www.flerwin.net/batiktest.zip
The ZIP file contains the Java source code, the SVG file and also the two
resulting PDF files
2kbyte one is when using batik 1.6 and the 82kbyte one is when using batik
SVN trunk
The only difference that I did when running the code, is change which
batik version I was using! (1.6 or svn trunk)
Thanks

Hi Antonio,
it would probably help if you'd posts the source code or link to the
svg file you are rendering to PDF. So people can have a look why Batik
is rasterizing your content. It might be related to group opacity,
filters, etc.
