batik-rasterizer and invalid url problem
Hi,
I am trying to render a SVG to PDF using Batik-rasterizer on the command
line but get an error message:
-----------
Error while converting files:
Error: invalid url
(http://www.carto.net/williams/yosemite/unstable/printMap.psvg?paperWidth=210&paperHeight=297&mapTitle=Yosemite&xmin=270762.25&xmax=279262.25&ymin=4174203.5&ymax=4186053.5&mapLayers=hydrology,transportation,landcover,elevation&relief=true&ortho=false&scale=50000)
------------
The URL is rather complicated since I pass parameters into a serverside
script.
My command was as follows:
-------------
java -Xmx512M -jar batik-rasterizer.jar -d test.pdf -m application/pdf
-dpi 300 -onload
http://www.carto.net/williams/yosemite/unstable/printMap.psvg?paperWidth=210\&paperHeight=297\&mapTitle=Yosemite\&xmin=270762.25\&xmax=279262.25\&ymin=4174203.5\&ymax=4186053.5\&mapLayers=hydrology,transportation,landcover,elevation\&relief=true\&ortho=false\&scale=50000
----------
I tested with both Batik SVN and Batik 1.6 on Linux (bash).
The URL works fine in Squiggle or other browsers. I escaped the "&"
(ampersand) signs since he previously cutted the URL off at the "&" sign
and would also report "invalid url".
I also tried using quotes around the ULR.
Anyone knows where the problem is? It would help me a lot.
Thanks,
Andreas

Hi Thomas,
Thank you very much for the very quick answer. The dummy hack works fine!
This hack works fine for me. I don't mind the filename issue. I convert
single files and can use the -d filename.pdf flag.
Thanks again,
Andreas

The code wants the input to end in either '.svg' or '.svgz' (so it can
replace it with '.pdf'). So you can use the old IE hack and add
"&dummy=.svg" on the end.
You will still get a pretty ugly file name from the Rasterizer (it
will have all of the args in it). If you know a little bit of Java and
Java Servlets it's pretty easy to write a wrapper around the PDFTranscoder
that
will do this on the server...
