Converting SVG to something (without placing it in a XSL-FO wrapper
first) is normally Batik's job even though the code to generate PDF
comes from the FOP project. Have a look at [1] for converting SVG to PDF
from the command line or an Ant task. If you want to do it in Java, look
at Batik's Transcoder API [2]. There's an example in FOP's sources (only
CVS, not in 0.20.5) under [3].

Thanks. I doubt I'll take the time to try it, but I'll flag your message
as a "keeper" in case I need to do something like that in the future.

If you *really* want to try it, apart from the removal of the already
mentioned newline chars, the xref table at the end of the file (right before
the trailer) should be modified to reflect the pdf-objects' corresponding
offsets in bytes from the beginning of the file -- alternately, you have to
modify the file in such a way that the already existing xref table contains
these offsets.
If I'm not mistaken, that should be all that is needed :)
Good luck!
Greetz,
Andreas

I figured that might be a possibility. But I thought it might be worth a
try. I wouldn't mind getting a shell script, macro or regexp that would
make the changes necessary to make a c&p in a text editor work. My
text-editor has the ability to do many things, including changing
linebreaks & feeds. Doubtful that'll matter much, bug would be interesting.
Thanks for the heads up!
;-p

Sorry to disappoint you, but it will take a little more than just a c&p in a
text editor to make this readable by Acrobat. :)
Don't know if you have ever opened a typical pdf in a text editor, but you
will notice, for instance, that newline characters never appear inside the
streams. Outside the streams they don't seem to matter that much and are
only added for readability of the code.
By mailing that 'code snippet' then copying it into the text editor, some of
these newlines inevitably get inserted, so it's best for the original poster
to repeat this experiment with the original 'text'...
Greetz,
Andreas

I copied the text to a new file, and saved it as temp.pdf. I then tried
to open the file in Acrobat Reader, but it complained and gave an error.
It was apparently unreadable by Acrobat.

This looks like PDF. Why do you think it's "text"? Does
Acrobat Reader complain?

Have you checked here:
"fop-0.20.5/examples/fo/svg"
(svg examples are installed with FOP)
Hope this helps!
