Hi,

That's a FAQ. Check http://xml.apache.org/fop/graphics.html#svg-pdf-text on
how to improve quality of the outputted text.
(page will also contains other info about transparency and the like)

Greetz,

Andreas

Ah, opacity is not a problem with
jpegs.  However, svg
graphics such as text appear less crisp than the original SVG, especially when
printing.

Hello





 





Not sure why this is a
problem. I use batik to create JPGs with transparency from SVG input. I then
embed these with FOP. Have you tried rasterising your SVG separately ?

Subject: Opacity in SVG graphics
on PDF documents.

I know that opacity is a problem as
evidenced known problem 6.

 

http://xml.apache.org/fop/graphics.html#svg-problems

 

However, does anyone know why?  I attempted to work around this issue by
converting the image first to png (tried tiff and jpeg too).  The opacity is there with png, but any text
is choppy, pixilated, especially when printing.

Text is much better if I leave the svg graphic as it
is, but of course, everything is opaque.

 

Thanks for any help,

Derrick
