Rasterizer output corrupt

[Juergen Key <jk...@netsys-it.de>]

Hi all,

i have a question concerning rasterizing svg documents. i tried to do so
from within a java application im currently writing. but after days of
fruitless efforts i tried to rasterize the document with the
batik-rasterizer.jar. 

But the problem persisted event then. 

The output from the renderer (rasterizer) is not what i see inside the
application i drew the image with (inkscape). In short - i have a very
wide graphics element (wider than the document). This element is masked
and translated. The rasterizer seems to add a mask of its own that is
around 35 pixels larger on either of the four sides. I added the svg for
reference and the rendered png.

Could you point out to me please why what appears to me to be an
additional mask is added, how i can suppress this additional mask and if
that is not possible what to do to get the rendering right?

Best regards,

Juergen Key

        So the mask element seems to be clipped (which causes the content 
being
masked to be clipped).  I haven't figured out why that is happening right 
now but I
can say that if you replace the mask with a clipPath it renderes correctly 
(in this case
it will be essentially identical but more efficient).
