2. New features
* Support for the printNode() script function.
* Support for the Window and Location interface subsets from
SVG Tiny 1.2.
3. Improvements
* DocumentType nodes are now created for XML documents where one was
supplied in the markup (although only the name, publicId and systemId
properties of the DocumentType object are filled in).
* Dynamically created <script> elements inserted into the document are
now executed (at most once, as with HTML).
* The location bar in Squiggle is now updated if the requested document
followed an HTTP redirect.
* Improve Batik's Rhino class shutter so that it works with Rhino 1.6R7.
* Allow SVGGenerator2D to embed fonts that weren't obtained from the
standard AWT font lookup mechanism.
* ttf2svg no longer outputs hkern elements outside user-provided glyph range.
* Batik now tries to access content in HTTP error responses (for example, one
is able to setup custom content for missing - HTTP code 404 - and/or other
erroneous situations).
* Internally registers not only font families but also makes font available
through their font names.
* All CSS font weights are now handled for font selection
* Compatibility with GNU Classpath, OpenJDK and other open JVM was improved
(image I/O is now used by default, over the Sun proprietary classes).
4. Bug fixes
* Better DOM serialization code.
* The prompt() script function now returns a proper ECMAScript String
value instead of an object.
* Changes to a CDATA section in a <style> element are now detected.
* Fixed tight bounds calculation for Quadradic Bezier curves.
* Now uses float for Document Dimensions.
* Ensure motion animations that are removed from a document don't
cause an NPE.
* Animations that become frozen are now not incorrectly deprioritised
compared to other animations on the same attribute.
* Avoid canvas repaint problems that occur in some circumstances when
it is being resized.
* Exceptions are now thrown if an invalid QName is passed to
DOMImplementation.createDocumentType().
* DocumentType.getName() now returns the correct value.
* Fixed SVGLocatable.farthestViewportElement to return null when
called on the outermost <svg> element.
* JavaScript fragments using different types within the one document
(such as text/javascript and application/ecmascript) now share the
same script interpreter.
* Exporting 256 color indexed PNG files in Squiggle now works.
* Avoid an NPE in ttf2svg when resolving substitutions for Arabic script.
* ttf2svg now correctly writes out kerning pairs for characters that have
no name.
* SVGGraphics2D now serializes font-size values in style="" attributes
with a unit.
* Avoid an NPE when disposing a document that had animations targetting
CSS properties on elements that subsequently became display:none.
* The startOffset="" attribute on textPath elements now allows negative
percentages.
* Correctly handle individual missing <view> attributes by looking at
the closest ancestor SVG element.
* Fixed HeadlessExceptions related to WMF transcoding.
* Font families containing numbers (like "Univers 45 Light") no longer
cause errors.
* Compiling on Oracle JDK 7 and JDK 8 now works.
* On Windows, spaces within environment variables like JAVA_HOME no longer
cause errors (JDK 6 and above default install location were moved from
the system drive root to a Java folder inside Program Files).
* Fixed a manifest issue affecting several Jars which prevented proper
integration with NetBeans and other third-party IDEs and tools.
* Several fixes for Rasterizer Task contribution (which was not building
in Linux nor Cygwin and more).

1.5.1 -> 1.6
------------
1. Bugzilla problem reports fixed:
28035, 28188, 28429, 28432, 28487, 29110, 29891, 30580, 30584,
30739, 30923, 30925, 30948, 31603, 32108, 32435, 32872, 32951,
33242, 33733, 33890, 33923, 33986, 34030, 34041, 34115
2. SVG 1.2 Features:
* All SVG 1.2 elements/features have been moved from
the Batik namespace into the SVG 1.2 namespace (except for
flowText which remains, due to some loss of functionality
with the current flowRoot and potential spec instability).
* Implementation of SVG 1.2 flowRoot element (text flow into
arbitrary regions with bidi support).
* There is now an SVG12CSSEngine which has support for new
properties in SVG 1.2
3. Improvements:
* Massive performance improvement (>10X) for drawing on Mac OS X.
* Document.getElementById now uses a Hashtable to speedup lookups.
* JavaScript can now be used in an Applet out of the box.
* Added support for 'font' shorthand property.
* Added support for 'deselectAll' SVG DOM call.
* getEncolsureList and getIntersectionList are implemented.
* Added support for get[Screen]PixelUnitToMillimeterX/Y
* SVG DOM getTotalLength, and getPointAtLength are now implemented.
* Support for preserveAspectRatio DOM methods.
* Squiggle browser now has a 'Save As' menu item.
* Can toggle if xml:base should be added to saved SVG.
* Can 'pretty print' saved XML for readability.
* ExtensibleSVGDOMImplementation no longer exists,
the SVGDOMImplementation is now extensible. There is a
new baseclass ExtensibleDOMImplementation that provides
extension capabilities to any DOMImplementation subclass.
As a result the name of the services meta-file has moved to:
'org.apache.batik.dom.DomExtension'
from:
'org.apache.batik.dom.svg.DomExtension'.
People with DOM extension will have to update the service file
accordingly.
* ExtensibleDOMImplementation now allows 'extension' elements in
the SVG Namespace (they are always lower priority than 'buit ins').
* When a new Document is loaded a new BridgeContext is created for it.
As a result each document now get's it's own CSS engine.
* ttf2svg now supports 'auto ranging' so it looks at the font
to decide what to output.
* DOM will now detect when the child passed to insert/remove
* AbstractParentNode will now throw a DOM Hierarchy exception
if you try to append a node as a child of it's self (PR 34030)
* Anti-aliased clips (hqClip patch). This can be disabled by setting
the transcoding hint to vector or print (so content doesn't get
rasterized). PR 29110.
* Control of tiled image rendering based on rendering hint.
Using this hint may greatly increase the amount of memory used.
* The Marker interface now has a 'getCharIndex()' method to
get the index of the character the Mark is associated with.
node is not the child of the node insert/remove is called on.
* DrawImage now defaults color model to sRGB_Unpre if the destination
doesn't include alpha.
* The pattern element now shares one rendering tree across all
references.
* Some improvements for Kerning in SVG Font (faster)
* Arabic diacritics are now positioned relative to the right edge
of the base glyph. Bug 28429
* Basic DocumentType implementation, if present DOMUtilities will
now emit a proper doctype specification
* GVT Tree walker can now be given any node in the GVT tree and it
walk just that subtree.
* Many places now use getResource as Stream instead of Resource
bundles where localization is not wanted/needed.
* Tweaked UpdateManager repaint scheduling alg.
It now tracks when the rendering goes 'out of date'
with the document and runs runnables until it is out of
them or MIN_REPAINT_TIME is exceeded.
* Arc2D now translated to path with elliptical arc commands
in SVGGraphics2D interface.
* JSVGScrollPane now uses bbox of geometry if no viewBox is provided.
* Refactored the text and flow bridges so make things cleaner.
* Implemented textLength to return the value of
getComputedTextLength when the textLength attribute is not
set.
* Potentially large optimization in BBox generation
* The DOM tree viewer now has an option to hide text nodes that
only contain whitespace.
* The DOM tree viewer now includes the id of an element in the
tree view if it has one.
* Improvements to empty bounds handling, should decrease update areas.
* GVT Render requests are now compressed. This helps when doing
live resize of large documents.
* Some refactoring/restructuring of svggen.XmlWriter to potentially
make it a pretty printing DOM serializer.
* Latest pdf-transcoder from FOP which supports '-dpi' switch.
* ScrollPane now should do a better job of fitting document w/o
scrollbars
* title and desc changes are now dynamically tracked.
* ScriptFactorys now loaded via Services interface.
* Made the JDK image loading Mediatracker static
(so others could use it easier).
* ParsedURL now uses the current Batik version as it's default
UserAgent
* Rationalized Text Selection code. Copy to clipboard is now done
by JGVTComponent only if 'unix style' text selection is requested
(default).
4. Bug Fixes:
* Fixed all known memory leaks with loading images.
* Changing documents in JSVGScrollPane now works properly.
* Fixed a small memory leak when changing xlink:href on a
use referencing a local element.
* No longer uses Thread.interrupt. On some JVM's this can confuse the
class loader.
* Adding elements in the 'null' namespace nolonger causes a NPE exception.
* Fixed colorspace error in ColorMatrixRed.
* Line element no longer has a fill associated with it.
* Fixed bug #29416 - problem with empty quotes in CSS.
* Fixed bug #34210 - element selectors are now case sensitive
* Index out of bounds error fixed in linear gradient.
* AOI problem in PrintTranscoder now fixed.
* Null Pointer exception when PrintingTranscoding documents
using SVG fonts is fixed (the BridgeContext was being
disposed of too early).
* PrintTranscoder now uses UserAgent to report exceptions
rather than silently swallowing them.
* Fixed some minor bugs in the GlyphLayout code for flow regions.
* Very minor tweaks in JSVGScrollPane.
* Applied patch 28188, fixed tooltip text & title text, thanks Glen

* No more 'flicker' when panning a dynamic document.
* CmapFormat4 now clips charCode 0->65534.
* All Object.wait calls are now in while loops to prevent spurious wakeups.
* DOM keypress events will now be generated for so called
Java 'action' keyEvents (previously only keydown/up were
generated).
* Fixed a bug in the PNG Encoder for some 1,2 or 4 bit/pixel images.
* Fixed bug in PackBits TIFF files with multiple IFD's
* The 'debug' messages are now synced with GUI messages. Also they
are localizable.
* Tweaked the way we generate paths to avoid a bug
in the Mac OS X Java implemention where a close
followed by a moveto didn't join the path properly.
* Fixed width/height change onload bug in transcoders submitted
by Simon Mieth. Thanks!
* Fixed a bug with CSS shorthand properties not being set by presentation
attributes.
* DOMImplementations now return empty documents if
qualifiedName in createDocument is null (PR 32108)
* Fixed 'flashing' with JSVGScrollPane.
* Fixed PR: 30923. Text children now respect display and
visibility properties (including dynamic changes).
* Fixed visibility update bug reported by George Armhold.
* Fixed visibility bug on image elements.
* getBBox should now work per the specification.
a) fill="none" will still give bbox
b) It is now the tight bounds of the geometry
c) It does not include the stroke anymore.
d) When called on 'undisplayed' elements returns null (not sure
what the spec really says about this).
* Modification of use element's width/height now works.
* Fixed potential interrupted bug in the RunnableQueue class.
* The document loader cache now uses soft references to avoid
being a memory leak.
* Improved the xml:space support.
* textPath no longer supports 'position attributes' on it's self
* textPath now supports progression position attributes provided
by parent/child tspan/text nodes.
* systemLanguage, requiredFeatures, requiredExtensions now all fail
to match when given an empty string (as specified by the SVG
specification). Bug #33242 (thanks Rick Graham).
* Fixed potential synchronization issues in JavaScript intervals.
* Small optimization in Event dispatch.
* Removed debug print from SVGOMAnimatedPreserveAspectRatio.java
* Synchronization fix in SoftReferenceCache.
* SAXParser now includes 'ignorableWhitespace' when building the
DOM tree. I also tweaked the way text and CDATA sections are
created.
* UpdateManager is now always the 'source' of UpdateManagerEvents
previously in some cases it was an inner class.
* Fix for masks when using Alpha Premultiplied (Mac OS X).
* Improved consistency of events from the RunnableQueue.
Calling suspend/resumeExecution should now always generate
a runHandler event (although the events may be "compressed"
so suspend/resume may only generate one resume event).
* Fixed bug in handling kerning elements with multiple glyph entries
in g/u 1or2.
* Removed use of 'getTagName' to use 'getLocalName' to avoid issues with
prefixed svg elements.
* Fixed a mistake in the generation of SVG fonts that include
arabic forms (PR 33733)
* Fixed handling of complex paint types (base types with
fallbacks).
* Fixed CSS SVG DOM interfaces for complex paint types
(see bug 33923). Added new test for same.

* The worst of the 'extra spaces' problem with the pretty printer
is solved.
* Fixed updates to SVG Font based text (PR 34041)
* Bug fix in NumberParser (thanks dvholten)
* Fixed bug 34115 - CSSStyleDecl doesn't collapse properties.
* JSVGCanvas no longer holds cached viewBox so it responds
properly when viewBox is updated in SVG content.

Thanks to everyone on batik-dev/users for reporting problems and
working on finding solutions.
1.5 -> 1.5.1
------------
1. Security:
A script security issue was reported in the Batik Squiggle
browser. Squiggle uses the Rhino scripting engine and some features
of that engine can be leveraged by malicious scripts to gain access
to otherwise protected resources (like the file system).
The Batik team has worked with the Rhino team to fix the isssue
that was reported and the Batik 1.5.1 patch release addresses the
issue.
2. Features:
Rhino JavaScript Debugger now integrated with Squiggle.
Better line numbers in error messages.
Zachary DelProposto's Scroll pane class is added. Allows for
scrollbars on SVG documents.
Cool solitaire examples in SVG.
3. Performance fixes:
Parents who have children added/removed no longer invalidate
their entire area.
When a element is removed or CSS properties changed all next
siblings are not repainted unless CSS rules change them.
First event dispatch is much quicker than the past.
Switched to Xerces 2.5.0 to improve performance of data protocol.
Changes to paint properties on text is now _much_ faster.
When using many objects from an external file the file will only
be loaded/parsed once.
Modifying x/y and some viewBox changes on SVG elements is now much
faster.
Better JPEG embedding in PDF.
4. Conformance:
Batik now passes all non SMIL-Animation tests from the SVG Working
Group beSuite.
@font-face CSS property and font-face elements are now compliant
with SVG specification.
Changes to the 'class' attribute now update rendering tree
correctly.
selectSubString now implemented.
Dynamic modification of display, and marker properties supported.
SVG 'a' element respects 'preventDefault' on event object.
Pattern element no longer applies object bounding box transform
if viewBox is specified.
5. Bugs:
Fullscreen mode (F11) works again.
getExtentOfChar() returns bbox in text elements coordinate system.
SVGPoint now supports matrixTransform in more cases
clientX/Y now correct when target is a text element.
Bugfix in parsing some TrueType fonts fixed.
Now applies the 'all' media type to all content.
Image transcoders default to 400x400 rather than issuing an error
(consistent with viewer).
The properties opacity/filter/masking/pointer-events now work
on SVG elements.
Clearing text selection now works
Zero width/height image elements now work properly.
BBox info is correct for zero width/height items.
Fills/strokes text when text-rendering is set to geometricPrecision
rather than using drawGlyphVector.
getCssText() returns the relative version of URI's
SVG Graphics2D outputs correct rendering hints for text.
TextNodes returns the correct bounds.
Proper text child set as 'target' of events.
Events handled correctly for documents that reference the same
image multiple times.
Image are displayed as 'broken links' instead of being an error.
FeColorMatrix now respects color-interpolation-filters property.
elem.style.setProperty now works for shorthand properties.
Fixed race condition in JSVGComponent.set[SVG]Document.
Fixed several memory leaks dealing with use element.
Glyph element's 'd' attribute uses inherited winding-rule.
SVG 'style' element no longer generates multiple 'xml:space' attrs.
SAXDocumentFactory now generates only one CData node for each
CData section in source document.
Memory leak with addEventListener and objects that ref event target fixed.
Click events now allow a small amount of 'slop'.
Fixed bug in rendering with Double Buffering.
Clicking on the Canvas no longer clears the system clipboard.
No longer recascades elements in use tree from foreign documents
Now supports CSS properties with the max negative 32bit int value
Now supports more JPEG image types.
No longer throws a Class Cast exception when using named colors
as the fallback for icc-colors
clearTimeout, clearInterval no longer throw exceptions for null
objects.
clipPath now respects clip-rule when using 'use' element.
Bug PRs: 12536, 23030, 23038, 23079, 23177, 24919, 25251, 25463
1.5beta5 -> 1.5
---------------
1. Features:
- With JDK 1.4 text-rendering="optimizeSpeed" will render
non-anti-aliased hinted text (for axially aligned text).
- The pointer-events property is now handled correctly for elements
without fill or stroke paint.
- Improved stroke accuracy when shape-rendering="geometricPrecision"
- JSVGComponent.setSVGDocument with 'null' now releases all
heavy resources and makes the Canvas display only Background.
- Many memory leaks fixed.
- Transcoders and JSVGComponent will now accept any Document
and convert to a Batik SVG Document if needed.
- Script interpreters are loaded lazily. This means that unless you
use them (by having event attributes or script elements) you
don't need any script engines.
Performance Improvements:
- Image drawing is now 5-10x faster, for most raster images.
- Significant performance improvement for patterns that are
filtered or have filters applied to them (take Batik70 for
example).
- AbstractParentNode insertNode, removeNode, replaceNode are
now much faster for Parents with many children.
Library changes:
- Updated to the Rhino 1.5R41 library
Others:
- Added control of floating point precision used in SVGGraphics2D
(see the org.apache.batik.svggen.SVGGeneratorContext class)
- Batik now almost never opens image URL's twice.
- JSVGComponent/BridgeContext now has three levels of interactivity.
STATIC, INTERACTIVE, DYNAMIC. With increasing memory overhead
and build time requirements.
- Improved test environment with automated memory leak, performance,
threading and interactivity tests. There are now over 1000 tests
in the regard regression test suite.
- Window.parseXML now returns a Document when no 'host'
Document provided.

4. Documentation:
- Updated the FAQ with frequent questions on UpdateManager, DOM
updates and visual updates.
- Updated the implementation status page and the home page.
1.5beta4b -> 1.5beta5
---------------------
1. Features:
Library changes:
- Xerces 2.3 is now the default parser. The parser can still be controlled
through the org.apache.batik.util.XMLResourceDescriptor class.
** NOTE **
While the general performance of the Xerces 2.3 parser seems equivalent
to those of the Crimson parser used previously, there is a notable exception
in the handling of long attributes. This makes a very visible difference
for SVG content that uses embeded images through the 'data:' protocol which
can be extremely slow with Xerces 2.3. The bookOfKells.svgz example, which
used the data: protocol for rather long images has been removed from the
distribution as it does not load in a reasonable amount of time when using
Xerces.
- Rhino version has been updated from 1.5R3 to 1.5R4 allowing to fix
BR #11968 (DOM access functions should return ECMAScript strings).
- Removed SAX and DOM sources from the Batik project. Now use xml-apis.jar
from xml-commons.
Others:
- currentScale/Translate now implemented (get and set).
- Implemented getScreenCTM, fixed getCTM (SVGLocatable)
- onzoom, onscroll, onresize events are now implemented.
- Integrated pdf-transcoder from FOP.
- Ctrl-K/L work in fullscreen mode.
- initial support for SVGList ( provided for SVGPointList in
<polygon> and <polyline>, SVGPathSegList in <path>, SVGLengthList
in textual elements, SVGTransformList in graphical elements )
- RFE #12735 : added support for dynamic modifications of 'xlink:href' in image element
- Now skips reading the SVG DTD unless validation
is turned on (improves load times for small docs).
- glyph-orientation-horizontal now works.
- linearGradient's can now be anti-aliased (radial gradient
anti-aliasing also improved).
- PNG Transcoder can now produce 1,2,4 & 8 bit indexed PNG's.
- rasterizer can now be used in headless mode (JDK 1.4)
- JPEG files now have X/YDensity set according to -dpi option.
- Batik Docs now include a dependency graph for the jar files.
- In ECMAScript, add the ability to pass an Object instead of a
Function to the Window.getURL() method in which case the
operationComplete method is called once the URL is retrieved.
- SVGUserAgent now controls the default font-family
- Added max-width and max-height support in the rasterizer infrastructure
(contribution by Henri Ruini, Henri.Ruini@nokia.com)
- Improvements to the WMFTranscoder by Luan O'Caroll
- Added better error reporting for external scripts: errors now include the uri
of the external scripts in addition to the line number which is convenient
when an SVG file references multiple external scripts.
- Modified the way SVG public identifiers are mapped to system identifiers.
The resource file now contains the mapping to the correct SVG DTD instead
of only containing the allowed SVG 1.0 system identifiers for a hard
coded DTD.
- Added support for cursors.
Bug Fixes:
- clientX/Y values in MouseEvents are now returned in screen
pixels (it had been the viewBox coordinate system which was
convenient but wrong and problematic for some cases).
- Changed default extension for TIFF files to '.tif' from '.tiff'.
- Fixed bugs in screen updating when the size/location of the
root graphics node changed, and when transform on group
changes after bounds on a child.
- ToolTips no longer 'hang around' under JDK 1.4.1
- The JSVGCanvas no longer steals focus and pops forward whenever
the cursor passes over the canvas.
- The JSVGCanvas will no longer thrown an exception if an SVG
document is set prior to the component's size being set.
- Text anchor for vertical text.
- For corrupt/incomplete JPEG images now shows what it can.
- Fixed bug with Indexed PNG's that have a bKGD chunk.
- getRelatedTarget fixed for mouseout event.
- glyph-orientation-horizontal/vertical no longer require a unit
as per the SVG specification.
- Fixes for 'jar' protocol.
- Fixed compressed Tiff writing.
- Missing Glyph's are now rendered correctly.
- Text selection now works better with altGlyphs.
- PrintTranscoder no longer scales 'real world' units wrong.
- Fixed a bug involving the 'use' element with a width/height in
an SVGFont referenced from external documents.
- Collaboration with Philipe Converset (Qarbon) on an extension to define
margins in filter regions. This is now supported in the Batik namespace.

- Diagram showing the various Batik jar files and their relationships.
1.5beta4 -> 1.5beta4b
---------------------
This is a patch release fixing a bug on linking.
1.5beta3 -> 1.5beta4
--------------------
1. Features
- Squiggle Browser:
- the F11 key lets users enter the full screen mode or exit the
full screen mode if they are already in that mode.
- the Browser can now handle XML files which contain a stylesheet
declaration referencing an XSL transformation. If that transformation
generates an SVG document, Squiggle will display it.
By default, this feature is disabled because it requires that
the user either uses the JDK 1.4 (or greater) version (which at
this time is not a requirement for Batik) or that an XSL transformation
engine (such as Xalan) be in the classpath.
To enable the feature, uncomment the following line (i.e., remove the '#'):
#org.apache.batik.apps.svgbrowser.XMLInputHandler
in the:
resources/META-INF/services/org.apache.batik.apps.svgbrowser.SquiggleInputHandler
file.
- Scripting:
- Added the ability to use an ECMAScript object providing an handleEvent
method for the listener argument of the addEventListener method on DOM objects
(previously only ECMAScript functions were accepted as parameter). [RFE9149]
2. Bug Fixes
- Images - bounds/hints now updated correctly when changed via script
- Local refs now work with null Document URL.
- Double buffered rendering now updates correctly on Mac OS X.
- ParseXML no longer assumes doc is SVG.
- Squiggle can now do Http authentication.
- SVG Font bounds fix
- Text layout fix (anchor and textLength)
- Adding/Removing children no longer invalidates entire parent region.
- handling of position attributes (x,y,dx,dy,rotate) on emtpy tspans has been fixed.
- Fixed improper handling on <altGlyphItem>
- Removed unnecessary font matching with <altGlyph> which can be found
- 'stroke-dasharray' now works with units,
- fixed bugs (CSS !important rules, DOM replaceChild on the root element,
SVG paint parsing, CSS percentages).
1.5beta2 -> 1.5beta3
--------------------
1. Features:
- Squiggle Browser:
- now keeps a history of recently visited URIs
- offers more control over the security features
- Enhanced Security Support:
- downloading of all external resources can now be
controlled through the UserAgent. This includes
scripting (as before) but also <image>, <use>, and
all elements which may reference external resources
(over 15).
- users security policy now takes precedence over the
application policy. Users can set the java.security.policy
system property when starting a Batik application and it
will take precedence.
- Interactivity and Scripting Support Improvements:
- filter, mask, gradients, clip, pattern and marker are now
updated when the geometry of the referencing graphical
element is dynamically changed.
- implementation of keyboard events (KeyEvents from DOM Level 2
Working Draft). In the near future, the batik team will
implement the TextEvents from the DOM Level 3 Events module.
- Newly supported elements (can now be modified by scripts):
<svg>, <image> and <text> element children (such as <tspan>);
- Support for addition/removal/modification of stylesheets
- Misc:
- external scripts can now be gzipped.
- added getPixelUnitToMillimeter to UserAgent classes
NOTE: the getPixelToMM and getPixelToMillimeter methods will be
removed after 1.5b3 is released!
- Improvements in the support for the <flowText> extension
- Added support for attribute/id/adjacent selector and :first-child
dynamic updates,
2. Bug Fixing:
- #1075, #4834, #5233, #5347, #5806, #6642, #6683, #7053,#8330, #9740,
#9058, #9067, #9304, #9429, #9520, #9779, #9804, #9272, #9276,

- MultiImage now respects xml:base
- Fixed mouse location bug
3. Documentation Update:
- Many additional links have been added to the Batik documentation
as well as improvements in its structure and content, thanks to
the work of Robert Di Blasi.
1.5beta1 -> 1.5beta2
--------------------
** Note on the new security support **
- Scripts are now run in a sand-box by default for the Batik sample
applications (the Squiggle SVG Browser and the Rasterizer). Users of
the SVG toolkit who what to run scripts securely need to add
security support in their application and may use the work done for
Squiggle as an example
(e.g., see the org.apache.batik.util.ApplicationSecurityEnforcer class).
- There is a known limitiation: scripts loaded from a 'file:' url
cannot access (i.e., load files) under the same root. This is not
true for scripts loaded from a server (e.g., 'http:' urls).
1. Features:
- Scripting support for styling properties:
- Most of the CSS properties and style attributes can now
be changed dynad:/work/dev/svg/apache/builds/batik-1.5beta3/mically. See:
http://xml.apache.org/batik/supportedProperties.html
- Added support for style and class attributes dynamic updates
- DOM support:
- Implementation of SVGLocatable including SVGMatrix
- All class members of type: SVGLength now works on most of the
graphical elements (rect.x.baseVal.value)
- Implementation of CSS DOM (getStyle, getComputedStyle...)
- Events/Interactivity:
- DOMFocusIn, DOMFocusOut and DOMActivate event types are not supported
- Security:
- Secure scripting is now in place. Scripts in ECMAScript or
Java code are run in a sand-box by default. The Batik browser
(called Squiggle), has the following security options:
. secure execution of scripts can be on or off.
. scripts for a given language can be disabled/enabled.
. scripts can be constrained to come from the same origin
as the document referencing them.
In the Squiggle SVG browser, the security options can be set
through the Preferences dialog, in the browser options panel.
- Misc:
- xml:base is now supported for the image element.
- <flowText> extension element that flows text into multiple boxes.
Trying to track the SVG 1.1 Working Group on this element.
- getURL, parseXML supported in the Window object.
- Testing:
- Improved test infrastructure. There are new tests for handling
automatic regression testing of scripting features and there are
more tests (801 now) in the regard regression test suite.
2. Bug Fixing:
- Fixed bugs with textPath w/ text-anchor, and textPath w/ multiple
trailing tspan elements.
- Work around for RenderingHints when Batik Jars loaded multiple times
in the same JVM (through different class loaders).
- Fixed a bug with X/Y Resolution for Tiff.
- UIEvents are not dispatched properly on <text> children (<tspan>...)
- <a> is now supported on <text> element children
1.1.1 -> 1.5beta1
-----------------
** Note on enhanced scripting support **
- Support for DOM Core and DOM Events (Mutation events and UI events)
- Limitations:
- No support for dynamic modification of CSS properties.
In particular, setAttributeNS of presentation attributes
such as 'fill' or 'stroke' or modification of the 'style'
attribute are not supported.
1. Features:
- Enhanced scripting support: it is now possible to modify
SVG documents through scripting
- Tiff Transcoder now takes FORCE_TRANSPARENT_WHITE hint.
- Tiff Transcoder now writes resolution tags.
- Implementation of SVG 1.1 solidColor element (in Batik extensions)

- 'image' element now respects xml:base.
- Renderer now reuses image buffers more often.
- Speed improvements in cases with lots of tspans.
- Filtered Raster Images now _much_ faster.

5. Bug fixes.
beta2rc9 -> beta2
-----------------
1. Contributions
a. New contribution of a True Type Font to SVG Font converter that allows
a set of characters from a True Type Font to be converted to the
SVG Font format. This contribution was made by David Schweinsberg
of SteadyState (david@steadystate.co.uk). This contribution comes at
the right time (i.e., as we just added SVG Font rendering suppor).
2. Improvements & new features
a. SVG Font support. Initial revision of the soon complete support of
SVG Fonts.
b. New image encoder/decoder infrastructure. This allows a flexible
handling of new raster image formats.
c. Improved PNG encoder/decoder which now support the gamma chunk
properly.
d. Additional tests for SVGGraphics2D.
e. Additional samples (mostly new SVG Font support examples).
beta2rc8 -> beta2rc9
--------------------
a. Polishing of existing features.
b. Bug fixes.
c. Improved test infrastructure.
beta2rc7 -> beta2rc8
--------------------
1. Improvements
a. Full blown in-bound and out-bound linking support. See the
two new linking examples in the samples/test directory.
b. Improved CSS error handling.
c. New test infrastructure.
d. Beanified SVG JComponent: see JSVGCanvas.
e. Enhanced features in SVGGraphics2D to manage style properties.
e. Improved error handling in SVGGraphics2D
2. Bug fixes
beta2rc6 -> beta2rc7
--------------------
1 - SVG Viewer Improvements
a. Added support for double buffering (controllable by an option).
2. General
a. Added line-number in error messages when parsing invalid
SVG document.
b. Maintenance and Bug fixing.
c. JSVGCanvas is now a JavaBean which can be easily configured
in IDE tools to add SVG viewing support in an application.
d. Support for rendering hints such as text-rendering and
shape-rendering.
beta2rc5 -> beta2rc6
--------------------
1 - new implementation of the swing component and viewer.
a. it is now possible to interrupt while loading, building or painting
b. rotations are now applied on the image in real time. document is
repainted when the mouse button is released.
c. real time zoom on the image with SHIFT+BUTTON 2 Drag
d. progressive rendering has been improved
e. toggling debug traces on/off to see performance is now possible
2 - new implementation of the bridge package
a. code cleanup
b. percentages are now handled correctly (both for xml attributes and CSS
properties - samples/tests/percentagesAndUnits.svg)
c. error handling has been improved
(line number will be available soon)
d. the building phase is now 30% faster
e. bug fix with <pattern> (samples/tests/pattern*.svg)
f. <marker> is now conformed to the current SVG spec (as of March 15)
g. percentages are now handled correctly on the outermost SVG element (need
to do the same for the ImageTranscoder)
3 - Transcoders. There are two new transcoders:
a. WMF -> SVG Transcoder. This is a contribution to the Batik project from
Luan O'Caroll (Luan.O'Carroll@boimail.com). You can run the transcoder on
a set of Windows MetaFile (WMF) using the
org.apache.batik.transcoder.wmf.tosvg.WMFTranscoder application.
b. Printing Transcoder. This implementation of the Transcoder interface will
print a set of SVG document to the default printer (see
org.apache.batik.transcoder.print.PrintTranscoder).
4 - Misc.
a. support for System colors (see: samples/tests/systemColors.svg)
b. Creating custom Graphics2D implementation is now easier. A generic part of
the SVGGraphics2D has been moved into a new package:
org.apache.batik.ext.awt.g2d.
This new package facilitates the creation of transcoders that will convert
SVG documents to an arbitrary format by providing a Graphics2D implementation
for that format that Batik can use to draw an SVG document (Batik can use
a Graphics2D to paint an SVG document).
NOTE: Known regressions.
a. next, previous and thumbnail have been momentarily removed from the viewer.
b. error messages are printed in the console and not in a dialog.
c. the partial internal linking support has been removed until
a full implementation of linking can be done.
d. printing has not been reintegrated into the new viewer.
e. regressions may appear for scripting as it has been added in a hurry for
this release. A clean pass will be done soon.
f. text regression on tspan handling where dx/dy are temporarily not working.
