Hi,
I have an SVG document which simply includes several other (let's say
10) SVG documents using tags like <image xlink:href="otherdoc1.svg"/>,
etc.
The 10 other included documents all want to use glyphs from the same
small set (let's say 4) of SVG fonts, which are themselves defined in
4 SVG files.
However, I cannot get this to work because of these problems:
1. If I reference the 4 SVG fonts in the top level document, then they don't
seem to be accessible from the 10 included documents (guess this
makes sense from an encapsulation point of view).
2. If I reference the 4 fonts from within each of the 10 included ocuments,
then even though the 10 included documents are referencing the same
4 SVG font files, it appears that each font is duplicated in memory for
each included document, which makes 10 x 4 = 40 font copies, which
quickly blows up memory.
3. I tried changing all the font references from this
<font-face font-family="'MyFont'">
<font-face-src>
<font-face-uri xlink:href="myfont.svg#font"/>
</font-face-src>
</font-face>
to this:
<font-face font-family="'MyFont'">
<definition-src xlink:href="myfont.svg#font"/>
</font-face>
but then I get this:
java.lang.NullPointerException
at org.apache.batik.bridge.FontFace.getFontFamily
at org.apache.batik.bridge.SVGFontFace.getFontFamily(Unknown Source)
at org.apache.batik.bridge.SVGFontUtilities.getFontFamily
...etc...
which is expected I guess because <definition-src> is not implemented
yet.
So my question is simply how do I define an SVG font and reference it
from multiple included documents without blowing up memory because the
font is duplicated so many times??
Thanks for any insights...
