dvisvgm – Convert DVI, EPS, and PDF files to Scalable Vector Graphics format (SVG)
Dvisvgm is a command line utility that converts TeX DVI as well
as EPS and PDF files to the XML-based Scalable Vector Graphics
(SVG) format. It provides full font support including virtual
fonts, font maps, and sub-fonts. If necessary, dvisvgm
vectorizes METAFONT’s bitmap output in order to always create
lossless scalable output. The embedded SVG fonts can optionally
be replaced with graphics paths so that applications that do not
support SVG fonts are enabled to render the graphics properly.
Besides many other features, dvisvgm also supports color, emTeX,
tpic, papersize, PDF mapfile and PostScript specials. Users will
need a working TeX installation including the kpathsea library.
For more detailed information, see the
project page.
