Invalid CSS Document?

[Brent L Johnson]

Since I couldn't get my TTF file to convert to an SVG file I decided to try transcoding an SVG file exported by Adobe Illustrator.  I got one of our Mac guys to export an SVG from Illustrator (using the font I want to embed) - and what it seems to do is encode the fonts used in the SVG file using base64, then includes this in a <style> tag in the SVG file.  Here is a little snip:   ---------------------------- <?xml version="1.0" encoding="iso-8859-1"?> <!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 20000303 Stylable//EN"   "http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/03/WD-SVG-20000303/DTD/svg-20000303-stylable.dtd"> <svg width="200" height="80">         <style type="text/css"> <![CDATA[ @font-face{font-family:'TechnoRegular';src:url("data:;base64,\ T1RUTwACACAAAQAAQ0ZGIPghb0EAAAAsAAAhnGNtYXABmwIZAAAhyAAAAGwBAAQCAAEBAQ5UZWNo\ bm9SZWd1bGFyAAEBATb4GwH4GAT+lP2eHAlqHAinBR6gAEiCgSX/i4seoABIgoEl/4uLDAf3HA/3\ .... gK8froCueaxwrnCod6J+CH6ioIWeG6ykmKSbH5ukk7C6Gg76kBT6oRUAAAABAAAAAwAAAAwABABg\ 3//e/93/3P/Z/9P/0AABAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA=")} ]]>         </style>         <text transform="matrix(1 0 0 1 0 50)">                 <tspan x="0" y="0" style="font-family:'TechnoRegular'; stroke:none; font-size:30;">This is a test!</tspan>         </text> </svg> ----------------------------   This works great using Adobe's SVG viewer in the web browser.  But, when I try and use Batik to transcode this SVG file I get the following error:   org.w3c.dom.DOMException: An error occurred in an author stylesheet: The following text represents an invalid CSS document:   @font-face{font-family:'TechnoRegular';src:url("data:;base64,\ T1RUTwACACAAAQAAQ0ZGIPghb0EAAAAsAAAhnGNtYXABmwIZAAAhyAAAAGwBAAQCAAEBAQ5UZWNo\ bm9SZWd1bGFyAAEBATb4GwH4GAT+lP2eHAlqHAinBR6gAEiCgSX/i4seoABIgoEl/4uLDAf3HA/3\ ....   Can anyone provide me with any help on this?  Has anyone had luck embedding a truetype font?  I know SOME have, I saw earlier posts to the mailing list talking about "blocky" TT fonts, so apparently some people are getting this to work.   Thanks!   - Brent
