Unfortunately these are common when dealing with maps using a Universal
Transvers Mercator projection. For instance the y coordinate of a point is
its distance from either the North or South Pole in metres.
My questions are:
* am I right in thinking that this limit exists in Batik as used by
FOP?
Well the problem isnt in Batik, the bug is in the FOP to Batik bridge code. Try running your SVG in squiggle to prove this.
* is there any way around it (short of recalculating all the SVG with all coordinates reduced by a scale factor)?
I believe you are in luck. A very similar issue has already been reported in the following bug:
http://nagoya.apache.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=24666
There is a patch you can apply to the source of the maintenance code 0.20.5 and it may well fix the problem you are having with 6 digit coordinates. However, there are no guarantees, since the problem above is to do with transforms rather than actual coordinates, so it might not work. Worth a try either way.

Please don't hesitate to report back on your progress on this issue. This information would be good to add to the FOP Graphics page...
