I think changing org.apache.fop.svg.PDFGraphics2D class may solve the image quality issue. Because PDFGraphics2D class hangles the image drawing. Can Fop developer please give me some help?
I tried to debug through fop with batik and find the call stack for handling my png image is as following: (1)org.apache.fop.svg.PDFGraphics2D.drawImage(Image img, int x, int y,ImageObserver observer) (2)org.apache.batik.ext.awt.image.GraphicsUtil.drawImag(Graphics2D g2d, CachableRed cr):152 (3)org.apache.batik.ext.awt.image.GraphicsUtil.drawImag(Graphics2D g2d, CachableRed cr):439 (4)org.apache.batik.gvt.primitivePaint(Graphics2D g2d):92 (5)org.apache.batik.gv.AbstractGraphicsNode.paint(Graphics2D g2d):485 (6)org.apache.batik.gvt.CompositeGraphicsNode.primitivePaint(Graphics2D g2d):130 (7)org.apache.batik.gv.AbstractGraphicsNode.paint(Graphics2D g2d):485 (8)org.apache.batik.gvt.ImageNode.paint(Graphics2D g2d):34 org.apache.batik.gv.AbstractGraphicsNode.paint(Graphics2D g2d) >From the call stack info, it is clear that PDFGraphics2D handles the actual external image drawing. Can someone change PDFGraphics2d to use the same approach to handle external image file as other image handling code in FOP does? Thanks.
