Java Drawing with Apache Batik: A Tutorial

This guide to Apache Batik—the Java library that can be used to read SVG files and translate the instructions in the files into graphics—shows how Batik can also be used to save the graphics as JPEG, TIFF, PNG, GIF, and other formats, so that the graphics can be transferred. Using Batik to create animation similar to Flash movies and its use for creating a drawing program such as Corel DRAW are also covered.
