Ralph, many thanks, this is, what I expected. If it works, I only have to add "svg:" to the graphics tag. But it currently doesn't work. The result is a broken PDF output - only about the 10 first bytes from the PDF. I played a bit with your code and I found, that the line "<svg:svg ..." (closed with the matching end tag) killed the PDF creation.
<fo:block> <fo:instream-foreign-object> <svg:svg width="150mm" height="10mm"> </svg:svg> </fo:instream-foreign-object> </fo:block> As you can see, I replaced the "800.0" and "8.0" values, because I got a error message about a missing transformation parameter or so. After doing this, the last log entry in "catalina.out", that seems to be written in the case of the "svg:svg" block, is: java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError: org/apache/batik/dom/svg/DefaultSVGContext I wonder about this, because the SVG-Demo from Cocoon works fine and contains similar code as yours. Do I have to reconfigure anything or install something? I installed the normal Cocoon 2.0.3 package and Tomcat 4.1.8 on a Linux box. There is a package "batik-all-1.5b2.jar" installed in the cocoon lib-directory. I didn't understand what's wrong. I use the J2SDK 1.4.0 from the Sun site ;- ). Meanwhile, I read some docs about "instream-foreign-object" and found, that your code looks 100% correct. So I assume it's my mistake. Other messages here in the list are also about a "java.lang.NoClassDefFoundError", but for other classes. It looks like a typical configuration- oder dependency problem. But I found no solution anywhere. Any suggestion?
