It turns out that it's impossible to simply strip out the JPEG code
because some of the proprietary Sun JPEG APIs are used for more general
non-JPEG tasks. "Liberating" Batik will take some real effort (I'm
looking for a cheap solution right now - since this is something we want
in the FC5 timeframe).
So, the next option is to look at using FOP without Batik. If this is
even possible I suppose this means no SVG processing in FOP. Perhaps
the doc generation work-flow could be tweaked to pre-render the SVG into
some format FOP can handle. I'll poke at this a little.
