dvisvgm is a simple Command Line tool specially designed for TeX / LaTeX users.
dvisvgm is an accessible and handy instrument that can convert DVI files to the XML-based scalable vector graphics format SVG.
Here are some key features of "dvisvgm":
· Complete font support including virtual fonts, evaluation of font encoding and font maps.
· Glyph outlines of all used fonts get embedded into the generated SVG file (corresponding PFB files must be installed).
· Glyph outlines of fonts that are not available as PFB (PostScript Type 1) files are generated by tracing METAFONT's bitmap output of that font.
· Optionally replaces font elements by paths so that applications without SVG font support are enabled to render dvisvgm's output properly.
· Optionally creates compressed SVGZ files.
· Options for applying page transformations, like translation, rotation, scaling and skewing, are provided.
· Evaluation of color, emTeX, tpic and PostScript specials.
