Yes, this is a known bug in FOP 0.20.5. The SVG subsystem lacks support for a certain basic paint operation (QUADTO) which is used when painting text as shapes.
I've got a work-around I did for a customer which is also much faster because it directly embeds the barcode as EPS into the PostScript file instead of going via SVG/Batik. It is described here: http://barcode4j.krysalis.org/fop-ext.html#The+special+FOP+extension+%28for+experienced+developers+only%29 Note that I have no problem giving this to you but I won't provide any (free) support for it. The other possibility is that you backport the necessary change from CVS HEAD into your copy of FOP 0.20.5. The missing part is this: http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-fop/src/java/org/apache/fop/render/ps/PSGraphics2D.java?rev=1.13&view=markup Look for the method processPathIterator() and port the part for "PathIterator.SEG_QUADTO" back into FOP 0.20.5. There's also a PostScript macro that needs to be ported: http://cvs.apache.org/viewcvs.cgi/xml-fop/src/java/org/apache/fop/render/ps/PSProcSets.java?rev=1.10&view=markup Look for "/QUADTO". This part is in PSRenderer.writeProcs() in FOP 0.20.5.
