I think FOP does it the same way as iText: Batik->Graphics2D->FOP->PDF Take a look at org.apache.fop.svg.PDFGraphics2D. It seems to be doing exactly the same as com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfGraphics2D. > > > That's because with fop for a line you'll have a width set > > > and a line draw and with iText it's a rectangle followed > > > by a fill.

Hm... given that FOP and iText seem to work the same way (through a class that implements Graphics2D), I can't see why the result couldn't be the same. It seems to me that org.apache.fop.svg.PDFGraphics2D and com.lowagie.text.pdf.PdfGraphics2D are generating different PDF content from the same Batik input. I'm going to try to find out where it happens...
