Apache Batik
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Batik is a pure-Java library that can be used to render, generate, and manipulate SVG graphics. IBM supported the project and then donated the code to the Apache Software Foundation, where other companies and teams decided to join efforts. Batik provides a set of core modules that provide functionality to:
- Render and dynamically modify SVG content,
- Transcode SVG content to some raster Graphics file formats, such as PNG, JPEG and TIFF,
- Transcode Windows Metafiles to SVG (WMF or Windows Metafile Format is the vector format used by Microsoft Windows applications),
- And manage scripting and user events on SVG documents.
