<!-- SVG in FOP -->
<s1 title="SVG in FOP">
<s2 title="Introduction">
<p>
FOP uses the SVG library from <jump href="http://xml.apache.org/batik/">Batik</jump> to handle SVG.
This format can be handled as an <code>fo:instream-foreign-object</code> or in a separate
file referenced with <code>fo:external-graphic</code>. Either way the SVG document will be
read in and converted into a DOM in Batik. This DOM will then be used by the renderer to
create the graphical image.
</p>
<p>
The AWT and Print renderers simply use batik to draw the SVG into a graphic.
</p>
<p>
In the case of the PDF renderer there is a PDFGraphics2D class that Batik uses
to render the image into. This class converts the drawing instructions into
PDF markup which is placed into the current PDF document.
</p>
</s2>
<s2 title="Converting SVG to a PDF Document">
<p>
It is possible to convert a standalone SVG document directly into a simple page PDF document.
This is possible through the use of Batik's transcoder mechanism.<br/>
<code>java org.apache.batik.apps.rasterizer.Main -m application/pdf document.svg</code>
<br/>
This will output the svg document as "document.pdf" containing a PDF rendering of
the SVG file.
</p>
<p>
It is also possible to specify the width and/or height of the PDF document.
Currently the SVG image is simply scaled in PDF so the result my not be the best possible.
</p>
<p>
For more information see <jump href="http://xml.apache.org/batik/">Batik</jump> for
how transocders work.
