Hello Everyone, I've found that Batik has problem with relative paths to external images. Even if they are placed in the same directory and referenced by the following code, they are hidden to Batik:
<svg:image xmlns:xlink="http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink"; id="img" link:href="sunset.jpg"/> In a recent discussion I've found two methods how to fix it - by setting batik.dom.svg.SVGOMDocument.setURLObject(URL) if document is accessed via DOM or using xml:base attribute directly in SVG file. I am trying to make a very basic servlet for exporting svg files to JPEG format. My servlet is based on code at http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/using/transcoder.html. I think it would have impact on performace to try to set base URI via DOM (several extra lines of code) so I am trying to add xml:base attribute directly into SVG files. This is quite nightmare as using xml:base in the following form I am getting the exceptions below: 1) http://localhost:8080/myApp org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeException: The declaration for the entity "HTML.Version" must end with '>'. at org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeContext.getReferencedNode(BridgeContext.java:7 80) at org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeContext.getReferencedElement(BridgeContext.jav a:796) 2) file:///C:/Program Files/Apache Software Foundation/Tomcat 6.0/webapps/myApp org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeException: Content is not allowed in prolog. at org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeContext.getReferencedNode(BridgeContext.java:7 80) at org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeContext.getReferencedElement(BridgeContext.jav a:796) 3) C:\Program Files\Apache Software Foundation\Tomcat 6.0\webapps\myApp org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeException: Unable to make sense of URL for connection at org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeContext.getReferencedNode(BridgeContext.java:7 80) at org.apache.batik.bridge.BridgeContext.getReferencedElement(BridgeContext.jav a:796) I have no idea how to set it properly. Is there possibility to use system path? It can be built using String path = getServletContext().getRealPath(""); so it could be automated somehow. In case of URL it must be hardcoded only I think. Additionally there is a risk it will have to be edited after a change of the URL. BTW, for my purpose the best solution would be addition of new transcoding hint which would be set on the fly - no processing DOM or placing xml:base attribute into SVG document. The path is known in the transforming step so it can be easily used...
