It returns the error:
Byte data not found at : data:image/svg+xml;base64, ...
while rendering in PDF, though works only on HTML exports.
As suggested in some posts, I tried using
net.sf.jasperreports.renderers.BatikRenderer.getInstance(new java.net.URL("data:..."))
but it didn't work either.
Could someone suggest a method that will display the embedded image in all types of exports?

Answer 1

I have finally solved problem of embedding SVG in Jasper PDF report.
Use raw SVG image data without data:image/svg+xml;base64.
Use net.sf.jasperreports.renderers.BatikRenderer to render SVG image. Maven dependency including this class is following:
<dependency>
<groupId>org.apache.xmlgraphics</groupId>
<artifactId>batik-bridge</artifactId>
<version>1.7</version>
</dependency>
Use fully qualified class names org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 instead of Base64. Maven dependency including this class is following:
<dependency>
<groupId>commons-codec</groupId>
<artifactId>commons-codec</artifactId>
<version>1.10</version>
</dependency>
Jasper jrxml shold look like this:

Answer 2

I haven't tried it with a svg but I got it working with a png image.
You have to add the import org.apache.commons.codec.binary.Base64 and you should remove the Header from the base64 encoded data: data:image/svg+xml;base64,
Now you can decode and pass the data with this Expression: new ByteArrayInputStream(new Base64().decodeBase64($P{logo}.getBytes("UTF-8"))).
In your case it should look like this:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
