Rendering SVG to a Graphics2D

[Paulo Soares <ps...@consiste.pt>]

I'm a developer with the iText library (http://www.lowagie.com/iText) that
generates PDF documents. Recently a class that extends Graphics2D was added
to the library with the result that anything drawn ends up in the PDF. Is it
possible to write an SVG to a Graphics2D and thus generate a PDF? I know of
FOP and I could use it to generate a PDF and then import it but I'm adding
shading and transparency to the library and that's something that FOP
doesn't support.

Best Regards,
Paulo Soares

You could build a GVT tree from your SVG document (with the 
GVTBuilder) and then paint that tree into your custom Graphics2D.
