Re: Newbie question about SVG
Don't mix two things: 1. FOP supports EPS as image format (input) in the PDF and PostScript renderers. 2. My "project underway" is a Batik Transcoder that allows to convert SVG to EPS. It uses approximately the same code that converts inline SVG to PostScript when an XSL:FO file is processed.

I just added (in CVS) a section on the graphics page, in the SVG section
dealing with this issue.

I have added (in CVS) an "EPS" section to the graphics page documenting the
limited support and the related issues.

There is no proper specification on how SVG should be handled. The SVG spec has a lot on how the SVG renderer and the container negotiate windows and workspaces, but it still boils down to "whatever the implementer chooses to do". There are possiblities to scale SVG, but I don't have a recipe at hand. All the SVG window/viewport stuff is black magic to me, and the only way I could it reliable make work for me in FOP is to use the same witdh/height in length units on the svg:svg as on the fo:external-graphics.

Little bit surprised by Clay answer ... so I can consider EPS is supported ?
On my side, it work fine ... I just have a performance issue (see "Rendering
PDF with EPS graphics in it").

This means I cannot include the same svg twice with 2 different dimensions ? Is it a specification issue or an implementation issue ?

EPS is supported, in some sense. FOP will basically dump it more
or less unchanged into the PDF, and Acrobat Reader isn't able to
display it. However, a PS printer will happily print the PDF including
the EPS, and IIRC ghostscript will display it correctly.
There's good information on SVG here (other graphic formats are on that
page as well):
http://xml.apache.org/fop/graphics.html#svg
Doesn't cover the question (Why SVG is not resized). It is somewhat
FAQish, should probably be added there.
NOTE TO VICTOR: since/if EPS (Encapsulated PostSript) can be used by FOP
(can it?), should it be added to the list?
Certainly, with the caveats explained. ("Why doesn't my EPS show up
in Acrobat Reader?" is almost a FAQ, nearly everyone first time
facing the problems seems to wonder).

RE: Newbie question about SVG
This is probably not the definitive answer but if you specify the proper width and height in the actual svg document it should be sized correctly in the resulting pdf document. FOP handles svg documents differently than other images. It internally maps these images to pdf graphic objects. For this reason i think (keywords: i think) it doesn't even try to scale it. -Adam -Original Message- From: Olivier Imbert [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: April 28, 2003 10:21 AM To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: Newbie question about SVG I use to got external graphics in my fo document.
