Ant task to rasterize SVG?

Hello,

Do any of you know of an Ant task that rasterizes SVG, and spits out
JPG or GIF or whatever?

I searched Apache's bugzilla and found the fix.  I applied it to Batik
1.1.1 and now it works under JRE 1.4.

I've been reluctant to switch to beta versions.  Are my fears
unwarranted?

AFAIK, this bug is fixed in current CVS; over at Cocoon we are using batik
1.5beta because of this.

Thank you very much!  I've been running Batik by hand, so this is an
easy step for me.

I had trouble at first.  The <rasterize> task was creating blank
JPGs.  So I ran the Batik rasterizer by hand, and found that it, too,
created blank JPGs.  So I ran the Batik SVG browser, and it worked
just fine.  What the hey!?

I snooped around the web, and found out that the Batik 1.1.1
rasterizer produces JPGs correctly under JRE 1.3, but not under JRE
1.4.

So now I run Ant under JRE 1.3, and the <rasterize> task works just
fine.

In the batik module under the contrib section there's an Ant task that does
just that.
