FOP uses Batik directly for its SVG support. Therefore FOP supports the same elements and properties as are supported by Batik. As FOP is designed for rendering to a static medium then only static SVG is rendered.

Due to some limitations in PDF some SVG images, particularly ones with effects or transparency, may not come out correctly. The images should still be rendered correctly for the AWT and Print renderers.
