This is our SVG width and height:



Up to this point, I have no experience with SVG, but I was surprised to 
see that there is no unit of measurement (cm, mm, pt, px) in the height 
& width.

When I added some println() statements to PDFRenderer, both in 0.20.1 
and 0.20.4, this i what I got.

0.20.1: w = 252836, h = 52828
0.20.4: w = 252000, h = 52000

Interesting. It rounds "down" instead of up.


The difference between those two, to me, seems to be the way you fetch 
the SVG size. In 0.20.4 via the BridgeContext and in 0.20.4 via 
SVGSVGElement.

After snooping around a little bit in the Batik sources I found a line 
with a // FIXME or something like that (I'm at home now and dosen't have 
the Batik sources here, but I think it was in BridgeContext or one of 
the instances it uses), where the float values are casted to an int 
loosing the decimals. Changing the width of the SVG seem to help but 
this would possible break some of the layout in our reports which are 
made for the election of the Swedish government. I will try to see if 
there's an error in the size of our generated SVG files. We use 
Illustrator to convert from EPS, and then we're tweaking them a bit.

Good luck!

document(s) gets clipped. We're now using 0.20.1 and everything is fine 
there. The PS renderer in 0.20.4 and 0.20.5 also produces a correct

this to be a big blocker for us, and I assume that's the case for others

and wouldn't it be nice to dig in to this before the final release.


Take a look at line 526 of PDFRenderer.java, it clips to the size of the SVG image.
Is it possible that part of the SVG goes outside the SVG width and height?

Try commenting it out or changing the size of your SVG and seeing if it changes.


I'll happily provide the SVG file, XSL etc if this could help. I've been 
trying to look at the code myself but I'm not really confident with the 
design and the PDF spec.

By the way, thank you for an awesome product ...
