Description

I want to use batik-rasterizer.jar from command line to convert svg to various formats.

I tried version 1.8 of batik, that worked out of the box with png, but failed with jpeg:

Unable to export image; About to transcode 1 SVG file(s) Converting highcharts-in20150410-18593-78lbuf.svg to /home/local/PDC01/swi/Projects/jobwert/tmp/highcharts-out20150410-18593-4kjr1n.jpg ... org.apache.batik.transcoder.TranscoderException: null Enclosed Exception: null at org.apache.batik.transcoder.image.ImageTranscoder.transcode(Unknown Source) at org.apache.batik.transcoder.XMLAbstractTranscoder.transcode(Unknown Source) at org.apache.batik.transcoder.SVGAbstractTranscoder.transcode(Unknown Source) at org.apache.batik.apps.rasterizer.SVGConverter.transcode(Unknown Source) at org.apache.batik.apps.rasterizer.SVGConverter.execute(Unknown Source) at org.apache.batik.apps.rasterizer.Main.execute(Unknown Source) at org.apache.batik.apps.rasterizer.Main.main(Unknown Source) ... error (SVGConverter.error.while.rasterizing.file)

I've tried manipulating the class-path to explicitly link to the batik-codec.jar, e.g.:

java -classpath batik-1.8/batik-codec.jar -jar batik-1.8/batik-rasterizer.jar -m image/jpeg -q 0.95 -d out.jpg  in.svg

but that didn't help.

After downgrading to version 1.7, the export/conversion works without error.

How can I use batik-rasterizer.jar 1.8 from command line for JPEG images?
