Description

Hi,
I was recently confronted to this trouble with Windows 64 bits / Java 8:
When you start a JVM (Java 8 / 64 bits) from a C, C++ (or other non Java) program using xml-graphics to convert a svg to pdf, a crash occurs with  number 0 or negative in DoubleFormatUtil.tooManyDigitsUsed.
It's because the VM is not handling correctly Floating point exception (fixed in Java 9)
To avoid this error, I propose to protect the call of function tooManyDigitsUsed
