Hello, Thanks for the confirmation. I will most likely not be doing development in this area to solve the problem cause its going to cause too much overhead having to parse the source xml document(<=2MB) multiple times and doing multiple translations on it. Is there a way to import an svg into fop produced pdf and have batik render it into a .tiff or .jpg with the opacity looking correctly instead of translating it to pdf 2D vectors?
The only reason I want to modify this value is because I'm going to be assigning barcharts specific colours and I would like to automagically have the previous year's figures a slightly modified version of the colour used to display the current year's statistics. I was thinking about modifying the opacity to a lesser value to dim the colour but I'm sure there are other ways to do this. I could probably calculate the hex value appropriately and do this. Does anyone have any suggestions? -Adam -----Original Message----- From: Clay Leeds [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, October 01, 2003 1:50 PM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Re: less than 100% opaque svg graphic Adam Shelley wrote: > I'm am using svg's in pdf's created by fop and I was wondering if there was > anyway to do less than 100% opaque graphics in the output pdf document.

However, it should be possible using a combination of iText and a little bit of advanced PDF spec knowledge. This page on the FOP web site has links to everything you probably will need: http://xml.apache.org/fop/resources.html We'd appreciate learning from your experiences, including what works and doesn't work! Please report back and let us know what you've found.
