Thomas,
You were correct in assuming that the problem was related to the root
node not being an "svg:svg" element. By default the root node was a
plain "svg" element. Manually setting the prefix of the root node to
"svg" corrected the problem, and the transcoder now produces the
expected images.
For those interested parties, here is the relevant snippet of code to
create a new SVGGraphics2D that you can draw on and then transcode
immediately, without having to parse the document again:
SVGGraphics2D svgGenerator = new SVGGraphics2D(doc);
Element svgRoot = doc.getDocumentElement();
svgRoot.setPrefix("svg");
// draw on svgGenerator here
svgGenerator.getRoot(svgRoot);
svgRoot.setAttributeNS(null, "width", /* width */);
svgRoot.setAttributeNS(null, "height", /* height */);
TranscoderInput ti = new TranscoderInput(doc);
// do the rest of the transcode here...
