<p>
Librsvg is a library for rendering Scalable Vector Graphics 1.1
files (<a class="ulink" href="https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/" target="_top">SVG 1.1</a>).
Specifically, it can take non-animated, non-scripted SVG data
and render it into a <a class="ulink" href="https://www.cairographics.org/" target="_top">Cairo</a>
surface. Normally this means an in-memory raster surface, but
it could also be any of the other surface types that Cairo
supports.
</p>
<p>
Librsvg supports many of the graphic features in the <a class="ulink" href="https://www.w3.org/TR/SVG/" target="_top">SVG 1.1
specification</a>. The main features of SVG 1.1 that
librsvg does not support are the following:
</p>
<div class="itemizedlist"><ul class="itemizedlist" style="list-style-type: disc; ">
<li class="listitem"><p>
Scripting or animation - Librsvg reads SVG data and
renders it to a static image. There is no provision to
execute scripts that may control animation parameters.
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
Access to the DOM - Librsvg creates an internal
representation of the SVG data, but it does not provide
outside access to the resulting Document Object Model
(DOM).
</p></li>
<li class="listitem"><p>
SVG fonts - Instead, librsvg relies on the system's fonts,
particularly those that are available through Cairo/Pango.
</p></li>
