Well if you can add an 'onload' event handler to the root SVG element
(might be possible in docbook using a stylsheet) it is pretty simple
(note that this is using Java from Javascript to print the result):
onload="System.err.println('BBox: ' +
document.getRootElement().getBBox())"
Getting it in Java is roughly the same but you need to do some casting
in
some places. If you can add the Javascript onload event attribute then
the
onload script can add the viewBox attribute at that point and it will be
respected during transcoding.
To do it in Java however you will probably need to modify the
SVGAbstractTranscoder (the preserveAspectRatio transform calculation
starts at around line 240).
I might look into adding an 'auto-aoi' command line option.
