Sorry, forgot to put you in CC. I had to moderate your message through so I actually knew you wouldn't get the message directly. > Two questions regarding this: 1.

You could post through http://batik.2283329.n4.nabble.com/Batik-Users-f2970783.html That gives you a forum-like interface to the mailing list. >2. What is a digest supscription?

Yeah, the whole flow text stuff is stuck since 2004. Take a look at the examples under samples\tests\spec12\text. These are working for me. BTW, if you're generating PDF and get problems, it may be worthwhile to check out Apache FOP Trunk: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/xmlgraphics/fop/trunk (or download Apache FOP 1.0: http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/fop/download.html You can then try converting your SVG to PDF using FOP's command-line: fop -imagein my.svg -pdf my.pdf There have been some improvements to the PDF output since the pdf-transformer.jar has been created. And that might help. Worth a try anyway. > So long and sorry for cross-posting to both lists, won't happen again > > Regards, > Benni Jeremias Maerki --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: batik-users-unsubscr...@xmlgraphics.apache.org For additional commands, e-mail: batik-users-h...@xmlgraphics.apache.org
