Title: Using URL rather than embedded PNG from SVGGraphics2D

Hi all,

Does anyone have an example of some code to create an SVG document with an image referenced by a URL, rather than an embedded png? I know the SVG fragment needs to look something like this:

I am currently using the SVGGraphics2D, and reading the image into a buffered image, and then using the draw() to draw the image out. This creates the huge embedded png as so:

<image x="0" y="0" width="570" xlink:href=""data:image/png;base64,iVBORw0KGgoAAAANSUhEUgAAAKMAAADMCAYAAAAfzhMPAAAgAElEQVR42tS9B5wl" Z3Uneqrq5s65J0ozoxlJo1FOCEkoEgQCG4yNgbUXh3V6bwEDxsJhLfwWv8W7+2Pt XT8b+5m1CV7M2rDgJYkgkFDOGmlGo8mhp6d7Ot6cquqdc7766n63bsXuxv69md/9 dfcNdavqO9+J//M/2uLisq1pGtCD/tFPXdf5d9u2wfmVf1ffp/5Tn1OPo/6jz9PD siz3d3oA6Mrv4PMdFn/G/zXgc1Wfo79TqZR7DfRTnrt8zu+fem78rZbVc67y++V7 .........

What I would like to do is on writing the image to the SVG, include the URL as above, not the embedded png. Any suggestions where to look?
