Package org.freehep.graphicsio.svg Description

SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) Output Format.

SVG version implemented is REC-SVG-20010904, see www.w3.org

Adobe's SVGView plugin version 3.0 can be used as viewer

The following Limitations exist:

• TestClipping, one pixel offset and only rectangular clipping
• TestTaggedString last font not Courier
• TestText2D vertical offset ignored
• TestShapes no dingbats
• TestShapes no symbols
• TestPaint TexturePaint is not implemented
• TestFonts real unicode problems
• TestAll no Impact font.
• TestAll no special characters for impact.
• TestAll no sky.
• FontMetrics is implemented using the JDK fonts rather than the SVG fonts.
• The TestColorMap is not properly exported (linewidth or insets) to SVG. The surrounding boxes
  are too thick.
• The setTextPosition call is implemented, but viewers do not yet support "alignment-baseline"
• The symbol font is not displayed
• The zapfdingbats font is displayed as Helvetica
• Compressed svg files (svgz) were never tested, since no viewers accepts them.
• drawString(attributedCharIter) is unimplemented.
• The tagstring <v> tag is ignored. This should be implemented using <glyphRun> which is not supported yet in SVGView 3.0

Status:

Stable.
