Convert SVG to Reportlab drawing

Project description

svg2rlg is a python tool to convert SVG files to reportlab graphics.

The tool can be used as a console application to convert SVG to PDF files.

Known problems ( AKA todo list):
  • Missing support for elliptical arcs in paths. It is belived to be possible to convert arcs to quadratic beziers.

  • Text handling is limited.

  • Style sheets not supported.

Note that some limitations are due to limitation in the reportlab graphics package:
  • No gradients

  • No text on path

  • No filling rules (only odd-even)

A wxpython tool is included in the distribution which does a side by side comparison to the SVG test suite. Presently most of the official SVG 1.1 test suite is prefect.
