Thomas, Thank you for response.
I am not sure the version of Batik. The modified date for the directories under xml-batik is 7/24/2003. But fop version is 0.20.5. The major issue is FOP should not hang if the embedded svg references an unfound image. Actually the generated pdf file is fine. ( We have a gui and a batch reporting application to generate pdf file. User may mistakely reference to some wrong file. But once fop.sh hangs, user can not continue to use GUI or run batch job). As for the text position, SVG 1.1 spec does not mention the X,Y coordinates are the base line position. If you choose x/y as base line position, it is very difficult to position the text field, because the font size change may cause the starting position change and thus may cause overlap. Thanks.
