Hi Jeremias, Vincent,
I would need some help to understand how transcoders and
text handling within svg should work.
o first, when I try to convert some svg that contains text
into pdf with Batik (1.6), text is always rendered as
strokes, even if it would be possible to render it with
pdf text primitives.
This was broken in the Batik 1.6 release. I am about to
incorporate the pdf-transcoder.jar from the 0.9alpha1 FOP
release into the Batik SVN repository.
Ok, when I run the Batik rasterizer with an updated pdf-transcoder.jar from the
Trunk I can get text as text.
But this doesn't work when I run Fop with the same svg included in an fo file.
Am I missing something?
o only the PDFTranscoder is distributed with Batik. Is
the PSTranscoder broken? Should I adapt it to FOrayFont?
It's not broken but has less features and I guess the demand hasn't been
that high for pure SVG to EPS conversion. You should treat the
EPSTranscoder and the PSTranscoder the same way as the PDFTranscoder.
The PSTranscoder has less value than the EPSTranscoders. It was
originally intended for use with SVG Print but I never got around to
having a closer look at it. If anyone wanted PSTranscoder gone, I
wouldn't be upset.
As far as I know no one has ever asked for EPS output from Batik.
Ok, I'll try to convert the [E]PSTranscoders but will leave them as is for now
if I encounter too many difficulties.
Thanks,
Vincent
