[xep-support] SVG, identifiers, xml catalogs, resolver, net access

Hello,

Thanks to all who previously discussed similar subjects on this and other mailing lists. The archives of those discussions almost allowed me to solve my problem.

I am trying to use some SVG graphics with XEP. These SVG graphics were exported from Adobe Illustrator and each includes the following identifiers:
  PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN"
  "http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd"

XEP attempts to access svg10.dtd over the Internet, and of course fails when the local system is not connected. XML Catalogs (xml-commons-resolver-1.1) cures the same/similar problem for other apps, like Saxon, but not yet for XEP. I expect that the error is mine, but I don't know what else to try. Help?

I believe I have xml catalogs properly working, for example:
************
% java org.apache.xml.resolver.apps.xparse file.svg
Parse catalog: file:///c:/etc/xml/catalog
Loading catalog: file:///c:/etc/xml/catalog
Default BASE: file:/c:/etc/xml/catalog
rewriteSystem: http://www.oasis-open.org/docbook/xml/4.2/
        file:///D:/cygwin/usr/share/xml/docbook/xml-dtd-4.2/
.
.
.
rewriteSystem: http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd
        file:///C:/RenderX/XEP/lib/DTDs/svg10.dtd
REWRITE_SYSTEM: http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd
        file:/C:/RenderX/XEP/lib/DTDs/svg10.dtd

resolveSystem(http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd)

Is it necessary to provide additional examples showing xml catalogs working on this system? I think I could provide an infinite number of them. However, still, XEP insists on accessing the SVG files' SYSTEM identifiers over the Internet. For example, when using the following command

% java com.renderx.xep.XSLDriver -DCONFIG=C:\\RenderX\\XEP\\xep.xml \
  -Dcom.renderx.sax.entityresolver=org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver \
  -Dcom.renderx.jaxp.uriresolver=org.apache.xml.resolver.tools.CatalogResolver \
  -fo file.fo -pdf file.pdf

for each SVG graphic, XEP produces an error message similar to this:

********
[error] Failed to create image file:/D:/cygwin/home/steve/CurrentWork/ArchDoc/DocBookXSL/RenderX/graphics/IITP-1155_scaled_no_fonts.svg of type image/svg+xml
[error] java.net.UnknownHostException: www.w3.org
*********

What next?

Thanks,

Steve Whitlatch
