yes, should be the right one (ca 2.442 KB)

hm, either the jar is not in the CLASSPATH for Ant, or it doesn't contain 
the org.apache.batik.apps.rasterizer package.

look into batik-all.jar and search for a directory 
org/apache/batik/apps/rasterizer - if it's not in there, the build process 
for that jar wasn't successful for any reason

if you found that package inside batik-all.jar and nevertheless get that 
errors above, then the classpath wasn't set properly

the easiest way to cope with that problem is to copy the batik-all.jar file 
into the Ant/lib directory so Ant can recognize it automatically if you 
start the build process for the RasterizerTask
