Not duplicating the fonts. Rather rendering all text as shapes. We don't have support for Type 3 fonts, yet, which could be used for SVG fonts. So the PDF size is completely expected. > Does this sound correct? It seems regardless of whether I reference or embed > the font in the SVG multiple fonts of the same type are embedded in the PDF. In both cases they are SVG fonts, the way you do it. If you just remove the font-face elements from the SVGs I expect improvements of PDF sizes. > I am going to see what happens if I specify the fonts in FOP and see if the > file size is reduced. That's exactly what you should do instead of using SVG fonts. If you use FOP 0.95beta special font configuration should actually be unnecessary (except for an "<auto-detect/>" in the FOP configuration if you transform FO+SVG rather than SVG). This way, the fonts get embedded natively which should reduce PDF size and add copy/paste support for all but the most complex SVG text. > Failing this we are going to try and remove FOP from the equation and amend > batik to support multiple pages via the nextPage() method. Difficult as the PDF output support for Batik is still part of FOP. ;-) But I know what you mean. I think both approaches should work. Only the configuration is different because two different APIs are used.
