I think there must be a possibility to add a SVG to a chunk.
I have found a solution with svgSalamander but it's not that way I like it.
Thanks for your help
best regards

Subject: Re: [iText-questions] SVG as a list-bullet
I've used Batik to convert SVG to PDF using PdfGraphics2D, but never as a
list bullet.
If the .png version works, but the .svg doesn't, I recommend you test with an
Image around a PdfTemplate from some Other Source... just throw a filled
rectangle into a new PdfTemplate and see if that works.
If that doesn't work, it's quite possible that there's a bug in iText's
template-image-as-a-list-bullet code.
Another thing to investigate is whether or not you can get that image to
Appear At All. Add it directly to the document. If it doesn't show that way
either, then something is wrong with the SVG->PDF translation. It may be that
the entire image is being clipped (wid/hei too small or any of several other
reasons). There are a number of different ways things can Go Wrong.
I recall that I had to do some extra work to get images to appear properly,
but I was donig some under-the-hood stuff that may be handled automagically
with PrintTranscoder.

Subject: [iText-questions] SVG as a list-bullet
Hello,
does somebody ever tried to set a svg as a list bullet?
Further has somebody ever tried to add a svg to a chunk?
So I tried to do this but I was not very successful, maybe somebody has an
idea to do this well.
Here is the code which I has modified from the examples.
Thanks a lot.
Best Regards
Markus
