Reducing the size of SVG file
I have exported the JFreeChart as SVG using batik. And that JFreeChart is
embedded in a Jasper Report. But when i export the report as PDF the size of
the PDF file is too much becuase of the size of the charts. So can anyone
help me with how to reduce the size of SVG containing the chart? Please
reply as soon as possible.

i can not print the chart directly as jasper report doesnt support this data
type. So in JFreeChart we export the chart as svg, so that we can embed this
svg to jasper report. Also this Jasper report i am exporting as a PDF file.
This PDF file is one generated by client. So we can not tell him to use
acrobat features for reducing the file size. And he wants the reduced file
size when generated.

Re: Reducing the size of SVG file

ok, from your example it looks like you are not printing vector data,
but raster data. The interesting part (the chart) seems to be encoded in
a raster. Then, depending on the output resolution, the PDF can
therefore get quite large. That does not necessarily mean that the
vector version would be smaller. It really depends on the data density.
However, if the data is in raster anyway it would be probably better to
bypass Batik and print directly to PDF?
Also, PDF has different compression options. Your file might get much
smaller if you use a different compression scheme. If you own Acrobat
you can try the "reduce filesize" option. Other tools might have similar
options.

No, the problem is that 'chart.draw(...)'
is drawing an image instead of drawing lines and
boxes. I don't know much about JFreeChart and I
didn't see anything obvious in the JFreeChart docs
to explain why it would draw an image rather than
the shapes.
Which is why I said:

The problem doesn't appear to be with Batik or
your use of Batik but rather in how JFreeChart is
drawing the content.

Re: Reducing the size of SVG file

Hi,
The code for exporting the chart as svg :
public static void exportChartAsSVG(OutputStream os, JFreeChart chart,
Rectangle bounds) throws IOException {
// Get a DOMImplementation and create an XML document
DOMImplementation domImpl =
GenericDOMImplementation.getDOMImplementation();
Document document = domImpl.createDocument(null, "svg", null);
//System.out.println("rectangle width=>" + bounds.getWidth());
//System.out.println("rectangle height=>" + bounds.getHeight());
// Create an instance of the SVG Generator
SVGGraphics2D svgGenerator = new SVGGraphics2D(document);
// draw the chart in the SVG generator
chart.draw(svgGenerator, bounds);
// Write svg file
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(os, "UTF-8");
svgGenerator.stream(out, true /*use css*/ );
}
Now can u suggest something......

Then you will have to ask the JFreeChart folks why it is
drawing an image rather than drawing the various lines/shapes
that make up the graph. I think your PDF files will shrink a
bit and look better if you figure this out.

I have done the latter only. I mean i have called draw on a JFreeChart
object with the SVGGraphics2D. And after tht :
OutputStream os = new ByteArrayOutputStream();
Writer out = new OutputStreamWriter(os, "UTF-8");
svgGenerator.stream(out, true /*use css*/ );

It looks to me like you are not exporting the chart
correctly with Batik. The image element above contains
a few simple geometric draw commands. How are you
exporting the chart to Batik?
Are you calling paint/paintComponent on a
ChartPanel? Or are you calling draw on a JFreeChart
object with the SVGGraphics2D? I think you want to
do the latter.

yes, it would be really good to have a look at the source of such an SVG
chart. Quite often, the conversion tools do a bad job and can be much
optimized. Depending on the source we might be able to do suggestions
for improvements.

Have you looked at the SVG generated? Is the SVG lots of path
commands or one big image element? Does the text look like text or
is also just paths (you should be able to search and find the
text from the chart in the SVG).
What does a text element look like in the SVG? (I don't care
about the actual text just the text element and it's attributes
as well as sub elements like 'tspan').

Well I might be able to help a little based on the above info,
but so far it sounds like the only reason your final report is large
is because it has lots of charts in it. Can you estimate the size
of each chart? Approx how many bars in each chart? How much text
in each chart?
If we are talking 10K per chart that sounds pretty good to me,
100K per chart would make sense for a complex chart, 1Mb/chart
probably indicates that something is 'inefficient' in the
PDF generation, 10MB/chart means something is wrong.

Re: Reducing the size of SVG file
Posted by Namrata <na...@lntinfotech.com>.
Hi Thomas,
The chart contains the useful informatiion and its the bar charts containing
the information about some biomedical parameters. Firstly i created the
JFreeChart and then using batik i exported that chart as SVG to improve its
quality. It returns an inputStream. Then we save this input Stream in the
database as the binaryStream. And after tht using a query in jrxml file we
retrive this binary stream and render it in jrxml. And then we Export the
jasper report as PDF. Now the size of the generated PDF file is so large
because we are embedding each chart as a subreport in Jrxml. And each main
report (PDF) contains many such charts (many subreports) depending on the
bio medical parameters it has. Now can u help me with this?

Do you have any idea why the charts are so large? What do the charts
have in them? We don't have a magical, I want smaller output option,
the large files are generally large for a reason. The real question
is can you work around the cause or live without what ever is causing
it. Without knowing the details of how you are exporting the SVG
(perhaps a sample SVG file) and how you are rendering the SVG to PDF
it's very difficult to help you.
