Hi all,

I wanted to know if some one ever heard of something I am looking for : an SVG to PNG convertion library under BSD license.

I guess this may not exist, as stuffs like handling fonts, text drawing and etc. are likely to be not a peace of cake. However, I am just asking about it, if ever someone ever heard about such a thing.

I do not know at all about Inkscape internals. Does Inkscape uses such a kind of library internally as an example ?

Have a nice day

There's Batik but it's Java - http://xmlgraphics.apache.org/batik/

I also assume it's under an Apache License.

Thanks for the point MicroUgly, this may be of interest for other readers in this forum, but not me: I was seeking for a binary and standalone library (preferably with a C or Pascal ABI for easier binding). Well, I may just left this personal project in a pending status for more time (was something dealing with UML and similar graphical formal languages).

Take a look for rsvg for Windows:

You will also need to find rsvg-convert.exe application (from dev package). It's LGPL but may be enough.

I could test “rsvg-convert” on Windows with some SVG files, and was surprised : this really works. I though this would just work on very simple files or will crash; no, this works fine.

That's a good track, I will study it some later days.

Was lucky you were there

This is something I was looking for to draw diagrams for which graphviz was not really OK (SVG is more universal and flexible).
