AFAIK this is not currently possible. In jBPM Designer you have the option to save the process SVG representation every time you save a process (or when autosave kicks in) - https://github.com/droolsjbpm/jbpm-designer/blob/master/jbpm-designer-client/src/main/resources/org/jbpm/designer/public/profiles/jbpm.xml#L51 https://github.com/droolsjbpm/jbpm-designer/blob/master/jbpm-designer-client/src/main/resources/org/jbpm/designer/public/profiles/jbpm.xml#L51

with this you can have your svg alongside the process and convert svg->png if needed using batik or some other lib

Thanks for your Reply Tiho,

The autosave of SVG maybe is not what I need since I am planning on not using guvnor to store the image.

But if direct conversion from process definition to PNG image is not possible, can we create SVG first from the process definition and then create the PNG using batik or some other lib? I mean programmatically.
How do the Web Designer generate SVG from the uploaded BPMN xml file?

With jBPM and jBPM Designer version 6 you won't be using Guvnor 5.x content repository any more but can hook up to your file system of choice using the VFS (defaults to git).
Svg does not get generated from the bpmn2, in Designer the canvas itself is a svg with javascript api available to get it if needed.

ok thank you Tiho..

I will mark this question as assumed answered then, since there is no way to do this programmatically in JBPM 5.4 Final

maybe you have any thought about this https://community.jboss.org/thread/230196 https://community.jboss.org/thread/230196 ?
