Wow, that *is* weird... :-|

That might be, although I've crawled the Java 1.5 release notes [1]
(with focus on the most recent updates) and haven't found anything
which might cause this. Do you recall which was the previous (before
the upgrade) Java version being used? Could you try again using a
Batik nightly build [2]? (To check for the possibility of an issue in
Batik which has been solved in the meantime.)

I can confirm that everything is running as expected using Java 1.6
[3] on Windows Vista SP1. I've tried both Batik 1.7 release and
current trunk version (1.8pre). I've used a couple of Batik text
samples [4] for the test.


Please, someone with a Mac perform a few more tests and share their results! :-)


Hope this helps,
  Helder
