Re: [svg-developers] Microsoft beta namespace and SVG
Hi David, I wouldn't hold up too much hope based on the namespace document. I saw this when it was first published in March, but I doubt if this has much value as a hint about MS's future intentions regarding bundling SVG support within IE. In fact, it might lead one to think that they are expecting the community to provide an SVG plugin (i.e., ASV or replacement for ASV) due to their examples of integrating SVG support via binary behaviors. I hope MS has finally decided to stop its policy of slowing the Open Web by holding back support for SVG (and attempting to force people to use Silverlight instead and thereby lock people into their platform). Incidentally, OpenAjax Alliance polled leading Ajax developers about what features are most important in future browsers and 2D vector graphics was the top request. * http://www.openajax.org/runtime/wiki/Summary_Report Just to be clear, the Ajax community wants *native* SVG support (and Canvas) in IE, like what we are seeing in Opera and Webkit.

Re: [svg-developers] SVG in iPhone
Note that there were separate announcements relative to the iPhone and Safari3. My guess is that Safari3 isn't running on the iPhone quite yet, which means SVG isn't running on the iPhone quite yet, but perhaps some people on this list are actually attending WWDC and have more complete information. But nevertheless, it is fantastic that Apple is releasing an updated Safari that includes SVG.

Re: [svg-developers] Re: Just noticed a lack of VML support
Hi everyone, Here is what I know of the history regarding MS supporting SVG in Visio. When the SVG WG was formed in 1998, Visio was a separate company and a charter member of the working group. Sometime in the next few years, MS acquired Visio, but the appearances were that the Visio team was left intact for the most part and were allowed independence to deliver good products to their customers. According to statements at SVG Open in 2003 by MS/Visio people (and I was listening to them carefully because this was such a curiosity), Visio had a tower of babel problem because there were many different graphics formats, each requiring their own exporters and importer. In 2003, SVG seemed to be gaining industry traction. One of the Visio execs got up in front of SVG Open and told the audience that the majority of the companies on their customer advisory board had SVG projects underway. Additionally, there was lots of other industry indication that SVG was a happening thing in the industry. Nearly all of the software products with whom Visio needed to work with supported SVG and SVG had the features that Visio needed. Therefore, Visio invested considerable effort to use SVG as its unifying format for exchanging graphics data with other graphics software packages. Presumably, VML would not have been a good match for their requirements because few products export or import VML as an interchange format, possibly because there is no official spec for VML, just the draft spec that was sent to the W3C back in 1998 (http://www.w3.org/TR/NOTE-VML.html).

Re: [svg-developers] SVG tiny Vs Basic
Relative to scripting and SVG Tiny: 1) SVG Tiny 1.1 does not require scripting support, but my understanding is that some mobile implementations of SVG Tiny 1.1 support JavaScript, and many more support Java via JSR226 2) SVG Tiny 1.2 requires scripting support In terms of differences between SVG Tiny 1.1 and SVG Basic 1.1, there are some handy comparison tables starting at http://www.w3.org/TR/2003/REC-SVGMobile-20030114/#sec-eleind. SVG Tiny 1.2 adds gradients and some support for opacity on top of what was present in SVG Tiny 1.1. (Also adds video and various other features needed by application developers.!) The most significant graphics feature that is missing from SVG Tiny 1.2 is lack of clipping and masking. These missing features aren't used much within business graphics or user interfaces, but come in very handy for high-end graphics created by professional design tools.

Re: [svg-developers] Re: SVG Logo Contest
To elaborate on Bjoern's comments, if script elements point to external JavaScript, then the timing of the HTTP requests to pull down the various JavaScript files is uncertain, and thus other elements in the DOM tree might have been parsed and processed before the script logic associated with a given script element is executed. I assume that HTML has the same limitation as SVG in this regard. (If not, then SVG should include whatever feature that HTML has.)

Re: [svg-developers] Adobe extends ASV download availability indefinitely
This announcement by Adobe is certainly a step in the right direction. But what large parts of the community needs is a bit more: * Short-term: Ongoing maintenance of ASV3, where ASV is updated to support new versions of IE, Windows, Firefox, Safari, and maybe a Linux version is finally made available. Best case scenario would be if Adobe supplied those updates as part of an ASV 3.0.4/etc or something like that. Next best would be if Adobe donated ASV to an open source project so the community could take care of itself. * Long-term: A cross-browser solution that allows content to be developed in conformance with the W3C/SVG standard. This would be solved if IE added SVG support comparable to its competitors, but also could be solved via a new browser plugin. (Incidentally, neither the Flash format nor WPF/E are open standards. Those options are for people who don't care about standards conformance.)

Re: [svg-developers] Mars and svg specifications
Hi Antoine, Now that I am no longer with Adobe, I feel more able to express certain opinions. Regarding SVG Print: 1) Yes indeed, try to partner with how PDF/Mars is using SVG. As you probably know, PDF is very, very big in the world of printing. An initiative around SVG for print workflows that was incompatible with PDF/Mars probably would not be taken seriously by the major players in the print industry. The print industry already has to support PDF because it has so much industry momentum (and addresses most of their needs). It would be much easier for them to add support for the XML version of PDF, with SVG inside, then take on a whole new SVG Print thing. (Especially since MS is very aggressively pushing the MS-controlled XML Paper Specification into the print industry.) Thus, the standards world should try to make the page images for SVG Print and the page images for PDF/Mars be one and the same. 2) But beyond that, given that PDF/Mars is based on open standards, including SVG, why is there an industry requirement for SVG Print as a separate thing at all? The only viable reason for SVG Print that I can see would be if Adobe decides to keep all of Mars as an Adobe-controlled thing, which would be contrary to the W3C goals of promoting truly open technologies (i.e., not controlled by a single vendor). But if Adobe hands off the SVG parts of Mars to a legitimate standards process, such as the SVG WG or AIIM (which manages the PDF/A ISO standard), then instead of inventing a different SVG Print thing, the SVG WG should work with the community to define a *single* industry-wide definition of how to use SVG within print workflows.

Re: [svg-developers] Mars and svg specifications
Leonard, What I was saying is that maybe Adobe should not use device-color() for device color and instead use icc-color() for both ICC color and device color. The problem with device-color() is that it causes some existing SVG-conformant interpreters to fail. I assume there will be lots of Mars-created SVG files that use device-color(), since device color is still quite popular in the print world, so lots of Mars files won't open in existing SVG software. If Mars represented device color using the existing icc-color syntax instead, then the theory is that existing SVG-conformant interpreters would be able to deal with that content. (Most likely by ignoring the icc-color() markup.)

Re: [svg-developers] Re: WPF/E Goes Beta Community preview available for download
Hi Jeff, Good summary of the options. There is one more option - there is always the faint hope that someone will provide an SVG plugin to replace ASV. (Maybe you are thinking about doing something in this direction with Mozilla.) In terms of Dojo2D, my understanding aligns with yours in that it does not yet support declarative SVG (i.e., SVG markup) and instead requires building an SVG model in JavaScript via their API calls. In looking at the dojo 0.4 source code, Dojo2D as it stands today involves two performance intensive-transformations. First, if you start with SVG markup, you will have to parse that markup in order to build the Dojo2D data structures via their API calls. Second, the Dojo2D data structures will need to be transformed into either SVG or VML within the browser so that the graphics will render. There needs to be some accelerated code paths for Dojo2D to be viable for complicated graphics, such as mapping. For example, on Firefox, why not pass through the SVG markup directly to the browser without building the Dojo2D data structures, and for IE, why not use client-side XSLT to transform SVG markup into VML? Another performance enhancement would be for Dojo to provide a utility which converts SVG markup into their Dojo2D data structures by invoking their built-in XML parser (which will build a private DOM image within JavaScript) and then converting this into their private Dojo2D data structures. All of this is easier said than done. I don't know what Dojo's plans are for these enhancements. Of course, it is an open source projects, so anyone can contribute if they are motivated and have the time.

I'd also ask where's the Moz 1.8.1 version of the control, but a Moz 1.8.0 version of the plugin would still be worthwhile. Next, how does one go about configuring an ActiveX control to handle specific MIME types as a plugin in IE? - To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click edit my membership Yahoo!

Re: [svg-developers] SVGs, JavaScript and Adobe Illustrator CS2 and SVG RoboHelp Question
Hi Charles, Yes, I agree that one can get around this problem by using a browser that supports SVG natively, and congratulations to the browsers such as Opera that do in fact support SVG natively. However, if SVG developers find themselves forced into supporting stubborn users who continue to support browsers without native SVG support, such as IE, and must continue to use ASV, then there is a different workaround. It is the same workaround that Flash developers have had to use. One URL that shows how to achieve the Flash workaround is http://www.informit.com/guides/content.asp?g=flashseqNum=376rl=1. I believe that the corresponding tricks necessary to do the same thing with SVG have been posted to this list (or elsewhere), but I haven't been able to find them.

[svg-developers] Re: Is Adobe's greed clearing the way for XAML
Hi Jeff, First off, I will say that there are many impressive Ajax toolkits out there. I am going to point out the virtues of two such toolkits (ie., two out of about 200), but I want to emphasize that there are lots of great options in the Ajax space. (The OpenAjax Alliance's mission is to make sure there is good interoperability between all of this great innovation around Ajax ) The first Ajax toolkit to highlight is Dojo, which is particularly relevant to this community because of its SVG-centric Dojo2D component. Dojo is impressive technology to me. Very nice architectural foundation. Some large companies, such as my company, IBM, have jumped onto the Dojo bandwagon and are helping with that open source effort. Dylan Schiemann, one of the founders of Dojo (and someone who has participated in the SVG community!), will be giving a talk at AJAXWorld Conference and Expo (Oct 3-4, Santa Clara, CA) that describes current status with Dojo2D today. You mention yet another impressive Ajax toolkit with OpenLaszlo. I have seen recent demos of OpenLaszlo's DHTML support. Very cool and slick. It looks to me at the 5000ft level that you can do pretty much anything with OpenLaszlo that you can do with Flex. (Remember that Laszlo did LZX some time before Adobe did MXML.) With their upcoming Ajax support, OpenLaszlo now supports rich interfaces via open standards. The Open part of OpenLaszlo probably refers to the fact that their RIA code base has been turned over to an open source project. While I have suggested to Adobe that they hand off parts of the ASV code base to open source, I don't see hugely compelling value to a *new* SVG browser plugin at this point, especially given the Mozilla/Firefox support for HTML+SVG and the fact that groundwork has been laid to build an IE ActiveX control that includes the Mozilla codebase.

I've been hearing good things, anyway. 2) Watch for IE8+ (i.e. something after IE7) to support SVG. Chris Wilson has been pretty public about the need to support a core set of web standards, of which he considers SVG a part of. 3) I'll mention a third point: OpenLaszlo has been working hard on expanding its offerings to support multiple compilation targets. By the end of the year they will support compiling to DHTML as well as Flash. There is already some internal work on doing the same for SVG (though I suspect that SVG support could be rolled into DHTML at some point). Anyway, it's high time we started moving up the stack anyway and getting out of coding applications with a set of cobbled-together HTML, JS, SVG, XML, CSS files... In the meantime though, I really think an open source SVG 1.1 browser plugin is a worthwhile effort, simply because you can never have too many baskets for your eggs.

Re: [svg-developers] Re: Is Adobe's greed clearing the way for XAML
Hi Jonathan, You asked, so I will answer. My opinion on audio and video is that I hope the browser vendors see the multimedia light and implement the SMIL timing and animation modules. They have to implement most of it anyway for SVG 1.1, so why not have a bit of foresight and: * implement the few extra bits needed for future support for what is needed for SVG-t 1.2 * implement the timing and animation engines as separate modules from SVG so that it can be used on HTML also (similar to HTML+TIME in IE5.5) * support SVG-t 1.2's audio and video tags in conjuntion with SVG content * support audio and video content in conjunction with HTML's object tag The tricky part is inclusion of industry-standard codecs, some of which require paying licensing fees, which is hard for freely downloadable software. To get around this issue, the browser vendors should hook into existing audio/video player software (QuickTime, WMP, even maybe Flash) via the HTML object tag which they control from their built-in SMIL engine. I think this is an important issue for that part of the industry that wants to create standards-compliant content and not rely on proprietary formats and single-vendor runtimes. Multimedia is hitting the mainstream (driven in part by all of those young people uploading bad videos for the world to see). We need a standards-based approach to playing that content in conjunction with rich user interfaces.

Re: [svg-developers] Re: Announcement: Adobe to Discontinue Adobe SVG Viewer
Margie, Thanks for the kind words. In terms of possible next steps, I suggest finding a way to express your point of view (professionally, of course) within a blog or a forum that Adobe would read. (I don't know the degree to which Adobe monitors this forum and I am not sure what other industry forums they read these days.) An important thing would be to give detailed information about the business impact that you face. Adobe is likely to be more receptive if a company speaks up and talks about any specific difficulties that they will face and what Adobe could do about relieving those difficulties. Adobe is less likely to listen to people who simply get up on their soapbox. (I already did that.)

Adobe provided a high-quality free implementation of an SVG viewer at large expense. (Pat, you know this perhaps better than anyone.) Adobe also has provided (and presumably will continue to provide) excellent support for SVG in some of its products, particularly Illustrator. Adobe has also made large contributions within the standards community on SVG. (2) It is understandable that at some point Adobe would announce the end-of-life for Adobe SVG Viewer. Since the Macromedia acquisition (at least, perhaps even earlier), it is clear that Adobe doesn't consider the SVG viewer to be strategic. Also, browsers are adding SVG support natively. (3) HOWEVER, I believe that some of the details regarding this end-of-life announcement are unacceptable to the community and not in Adobe's own best interests. To me, it is OK to stop support (presumably developer support and security fixes) on Adobe SVG Viewer in the relative near-term, but instead of giving four months of advanced notice (i.e., 1/1/07), it should be something measured in years, something in the range of 2-4 years. (Note: 5 years is the usual amount for developer-oriented software.) (4) It reflects badly on Adobe that it did not donate the ASV source code (at least the higher-level logic that sits above the graphics rendering engine) to open soure. If Adobe isn't going to use ASV, then it should give it to the community so they can use it. Given how Adobe promoted industry adoption of ASV in the early days and thereby convinced many developers to build mission-critical applications using SVG, it is the least that Adobe could do. (5) But the worst part of this announcement is the removal of ASV downloads as of 1/1/08, with no option for others to host a different ASV download site. As others have pointed out, this will be devastating to those poor souls who made a commitment to ASV in the past and need their deployed SVG applications to continue working in IE, which today has something like 80% market share and is unlikely to support SVG natively before a couple of years go by. This particular decision reflects badly on Adobe as a business partner with developers. If nothing
Re: [svg-developers] Is Adobe's greed clearing the way for XAML
Hi folks, I want to alert the SVG community to a variation on SVG that might prove interesting over the long haul for interactive vector graphics. First, a bit of background. I left Adobe in May to join IBM where I am leading a new industry initiative, the OpenAjax Alliance. This alliance represents the collaborative work of 50+ organizations in the Ajax commmunity, with members including IBM, Sun, Google, Mozilla, Opera, Adobe, Oracle, SAP, BEA, TIBCO, SoftwareAG, Eclipse Foundation, Intel, Novell, RedHat, Borland, Dojo Foundation, Zimbra (leaders behind the Kabuki toolkit), Zend (the PHP company), Backbase, Jackbe, Icesoft, Laszlo, and Nexaweb.The chief goal is to accelerate customer success with Ajax by promoting a customer's ability to mix and match solutions from Ajax technology providers and by helping to drive the future of the Ajax ecosystem. (Unfortunately, our web site, www.openajaxalliance.org, hasn't launched yet due to the need for approvals by appropriate committees. It should launch sometime this month. In the meantime, if you want more information on OpenAjax, send me a private email.) The term Ajax has both a narrow and broad meaning. The original (narrow) meaning of AJAX was about leveraging XMLHttpRequest to provide the low-level technology in order to achieve partial screen updates and thus a smoother user experience for HTML applications. Nowadays, the term Ajax often refers to the broader notion of delivering rich user experiences leveraging the native features found within web browsers. Ajax frameworks include Ajax user interface toolkits (such as Dojo or Script.aculo.us) , Ajax IDEs (such as Eclipse and Netbeans), and server products such as the Google WebToolkit.. Using this broader definition of Ajax, Ajax technology providers deliver an Ajax engine that takes a cross-platform, browser-independent definition of the web application and then performs an Ajax transformation which produces appropriate HTML+JavaScript (and sometimes SVG!) to produce the desired rich user experience. One particularly interesting development on the Ajax front is recent addition of 2D graphics support within some commercial products and open source projects. One such development is the Dojo2D project (http://dojo.jot.com/Dojo2D), which uses a subset of SVG as input. On browsers that support SVG, Dojo2D passes the SVG through to the browser. On IE, it transcodes the SVG into VML. From what I hear, a first version of Dojo2D is likely to ship within an upcoming release of the Dojo toolkit sometime soon (probably before the year is out). Mid-release downloads for the open source tree of course are available today. Google does something similar today with Google Maps (i.e., SVG on Firefox and VML on IE). Other announcements in Ajax/SVG space are forthcoming. Therefore, developers who want 2D graphics and want to realize the benefits of open standards (e.g., cross-platform support and multiple suppliers) should key on eye out on Ajax toolkits that offer SVG support.

Guy, I have been biting my tongue, but your email was too provocative. Generally, I agree with your points. My additional comments: * The open source phenomenon is huge. The same phenomenon that transformed the server world (what with LAMP) is starting to affect the client world. Although the threat isn't imminent, over the next few years MS is in danger of losing control over the browsing experience to Mozilla and Safari, both of which are open source and both of which implement W3C standards successfully. Firefox's market share is likely to accelerate in the short-term as Enterprises discover its merits as a strong platform for application development and begin to require its usage instead of IE for Enterprise applications. This will result in larger numbers of people who start to feel comfortable with Firefox (because of being forced to use it at their company) and therefore comfortable in abandoning IE for browsing the Web. (Note that Google is investing a ton of money in Mozilla these days. Microsoft is very much aware of this.) * As a result, Microsoft will be forced to re-embrace standards in order to stop the loss of market share and reclaim control over their own Windows platform. Microsoft will be forced to do whatever it takes in order to push Firefox's (and Safari's) market shares down below 5% once again, and (unfortunately for them) in today's world that includes world-class support for open standards. And, thanks to the leadership at Firefox, Safari, and Opera, SVG has become a requirement. Microsoft has been aware of all of this for a long time. Therefore, I expect to see SVG support in IE betas by the end of 2007. * I would be hugely surprised if Microsoft followed Adobe's lead and announced VML end-of-life in the same (unacceptable) manner as Adobe. Microsoft is considerably more sensitive to supporting their existing community of developers. When VML is EOL'd, Microsoft will give something like a 5-year window before VML quits working with new versions of IE. Or at least that what my personal crystal ball shows.

Should we really believe their weasel words about it coming in IE8? I don't think so! I'm now wondering how long it will be before MS announces the EOL for VML, as a way of trying to screw projects like http://dojo.jot.com/ Dojo2D and push everyone towards using XAML. Personally, I'd be VERY reluctant to start porting apps to XAML, given that at the moment even M$ are not committing to it being available on anything but Vista - that's going to be a pretty limited market for a long time, even putting to one side that it leaves any non-windows users out in the cold. This might be fine for corporate applications, but wake up people, there's plenty of users moving away from Windows these days! From my web logs I'd say only 75% of users are using IE now - 25% of users is a pretty big chunk to lose by building your app using IE/Windows-dependent technology! A cornerstone of the web is that it be accessible to all - this means it must be cross-platform compatible. MS has never really wanted this to be so, but it is.

I also want to say that Adobe's primary attitude towards SVG is fully positive: it represents a market opportunity for our products and a technology opportunity when we are looking for an XML representation of 2D graphics.

RE: [svg-developers] Macromedia Flex
The FLEX server product supports SVG. Under the hood it uses Batik with extensions to convert SVG into SWF. So, I would guess you could use a tool like Adobe Illustrator to create the SVG files which FLEX would convert into SWF. I don't remember all of the details, nor do I know future product plans in this area.

RE: [svg-developers] Separating shapes and animation (XAML-like)
Once sXBL is available, it might help with situations like this. It is yet another tool that you can use when you want to create a re-usable template object and then create an instance of it. Jon From: svg-developers@yahoogroups.com [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of svg_tony Sent: Friday, November 11, 2005 11:42 AM To: svg-developers@yahoogroups.com Subject: [svg-developers] Separating shapes and animation (XAML-like) I've toyed around with the way XAML (like SMIL) separates the declaration of shapes and animations using timelines with TargetName or TargetID. There's a number of drawbacks as far as I can see it now if you want to do the same in SVG. I tried these: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=ISO-8859-1? svg xmlns:xlink=http://www.w3.org/1999/xlink; xmlns:svg=http://www.w3.org/2000/svg; defs rect x=0 width=50px height=50px id=myRectangle fill=green/rect /defs use xlink:href=#myRectangle animateColor attributeName=fill from=blue to=red begin=0s dur=6s repeatDur=indefinite / /use defs rect x=100 width=50px height=50px id=myRectangle2/rect /defs use xlink:href=#myRectangle2 animateColor attributeName=fill from=blue to=red begin=0s dur=6s repeatDur=indefinite / /use rect x=200 width=50px height=50px id=myRectangle3 fill=green animateColor attributeName=fill from=blue to=red begin=0s dur=10s repeatDur=indefinite / /rect /svg Drawback #1: You must put the shape in a defs-section, otherwise you end up with a second rectangle because of the use-element. Drawback #2: You cannot animate the fill, if the fill is already set on the original rectangle (myRectangle). This does not occur with inline animations, or if the fill is left out in the original. Drawback #3: I saw no way of putting an animate into a defs- section, then refer to it from an inlined use, like: defs animate id=a1 ... / /defs rect use xlink:href=#a1 / /rect Is there a good solution for this?

Re: [svg-developers] Adobe Illustrator exporting SVG?
I will back up I'lam's response to say that Adobe continues to invest heavily in improving its SVG support in Adobe Illustrator. SVG support (particularly, SVG-Tiny) was one of the major engineering investment areas with the CS2 version of Illustrator. The investment continues: there will be further SVG improvements in the next version of Illustrator, also. Jon Ferraiolo Adobe Systems, Inc. At 04:02 PM 8/15/2005, I'lam Mougy wrote: Short answer, not true. Illustrator CS2 (and CS) tries to write primitive if it can. If you draw a perfect circle, it will write a circle element, if you draw an elipse it will write an elipse, if you draw rectangle (even rotated), it will write rect with the proper rotation, only in complex transformation things default to path element. On the other hand (this is only in CS2), if you import primitives, it will preserve them too, so if you import a line element, it will keep it line when exported, if you import an elipse that has rx=ry, it will keep it elipse, even though it looks like circle. In CS2, animation is preserved as well as any XML data that is not understood by Illustrator. This applies to script element, some defs, etc..., you will be able to see those unknown elements in the layer palette as objects that you can move around. The goal in Illustrator CS2, among small exported file size, is to round trip svg files that are not created entirely in Illustrator. I'lam --- Joseph [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: Is the following true? When exporting vectors to SVG, Adobe Illustrator creates only path elements, not SVG primitives. Even though Adobe Illustrator has an ellipse tool and a rectangle tool, it does not export rect or ellipse elements. circle, line, polyline, and polygon elements are not generated, either. Therefore, you cannot employ a technique (like a script or an SVG animation element) that manipulates a special characteristic of a primitive. For example, you cannot write JavaScript function to change the radius of a circle, because Adobe Illustrator will not export an object as a circle element. (Of course, you could always edit an SVG document by hand and replace a path element with a circle.) I can see that Illustrator CS2 does rely on path element but when I downloaded the trial version, I could see two two rect elements when I created svg file from Illustrator CS2 after using the rectangle tool in the shape toolbar. Does anybody knows how Illustrator exports SVG? What elements it uses etc..? thanks JM - To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developershttp://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click edit my membership -- YAHOO!

Re: [svg-developers] SVG fonts in ASV
Adobe acknowledges that there is a bug in ASV3 where it does not implement the 'font-family' property correctly when a list of fonts are provided (or presumed). The CSS2 spec says that you are supposed to look for a matching glyph in each of the fonts specified in the 'font-family' property (and presumably include at one generic font as a fallback font even if it isn't listed), but ASV3 uses a simplified and incorrect approach where it picks a single font for any text run and does not do per-glyph checks as required by the CSS2 spec. It is almost certain that Adobe will not issue a dot release of ASV3 to fix this bug. Any fixes in this area would only come as part of a major new release if/when such a major new release were issued. Jon Ferraiolo Adobe At 07:07 AM 6/26/2005, Thomas DeWeese wrote: Hi Cameron, Phillipe, Cameron McCormack wrote: Philippe Lhoste: After some experimentation, it seems that ASV needs a missing-glyph element inside the font one. After I added one, it works fine, but of course (?), the glyphs E, L and O are rendered with the missing-glyph, not with the sans-serif font. Thanks Philippe, this fixed the problem! I don't know the spec. enough to say if this is the required behavior or not. This is not conformant behavior from the CSS 2 spec (15.5 step 7): If there is a matching font face, but it doesn't contain glyph(s) for the current character(s), and if there is a next alternative 'font-family' in the font sets, then repeat from step 2 with the next alternative 'font-family'. text font-family=test, serifhi/text my guess is that the 'h' and 'i' should be rendered with serif's glyphs, rather than with test's missing-glyph. At least, that is what Batik does. And it seems sensible. But in ASV it will use the missing-glyph. Batik's behavior is the correct behavior ASV's is not conformant to the CSS 2 specification. - To unsubscribe send a message to: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -or- visit http://groups.yahoo.com/group/svg-developers and click edit my membership Yahoo!

RE: [svg-developers] Options for inclusion of SVG and MathML in OpenReader format?
(I am a different Jon than the one who started this thread) Mark's comment below about XHTML2 and the Sidewinder viewer are all correct. However, I would add that the W3C has another standards effort in process right now, the Compound Document Formats (CDF) Working Group, which is working on the whole area of combining W3C markup languages into compound document formats.The first round of CDF is focused on compound documents by reference with an industry focus on mobile devices, particularly XHTML Mobile Profile, SVG-Tiny, CSS Mobile Profile, and ECMAScript Mobile Profile, where we want to set a low bar for mobile implementers to maximize the chance of strong interoperability on a short timescale. The OBJECT tag is primary means for achieving by reference. So far, I am not aware of CDF discussions relative to XHTML2 either positively or negatively. Certainly, XHTML2 should be discussed as CDF moves forward, particularly when the topic of compound documents by inclusion (e.g., XHTML with inline SVG) gets addressed. Jon Ferraiolo At 09:00 AM 5/26/2005, Mark Birbeck wrote: Hi Jon, Can I address some of your points with two different hats on! The first is as an Invited Expert on the HTML and XForms Working Groups, and the second is as a developer of products that aim to combine many of the languages that you mention. The OpenReader format, currently under development by the OpenReader Consortium, will, in its basic form, essentially be an encapsulation of an OEBPS 1.2 Publication. In turn OEBPS 1.2 is based on XHTML 1.1, and provides document extensibility and media fallback mechanisms. For more information on OEBPS 1.2, refer to http://www.openebook.org/oebps/oebps1.2/download/oeb12-xhtml.htmhttp://www.openebook.org/oebps/oebps1.2/download/oeb12-xhtml.htm . We wish to include support for both SVG and MathML in the OpenReader format. So what mechanism(s) do the SVG and MathML experts recommend for inclusion of islands of SVG and MathML markup within XHTML 1.1 documents? With my 'developer' hat on, you may want to look at our Sidewinder Viewer, available for download from the formsPlayer site. The viewer validates and renders XHTML documents that can contain XForms 1.0 or 1.1, SVG and MathML. There are still some holes in the schemas, but most things you would want to do can be done, although they are being tidied up a lot for the XHTML 2 work. Some examples are available with the download. Also, do SVG and MathML provide their own media fallback mechanisms [see note below], or will we need to provide that? With my 'Invited Expert' hat on, you may want to look at XHTML 2. One of the changes from 1.1 to 2.0 is that the @src attribute is now allowed everywhere. It works much like object works now, with the contents of the element coming in to play if the @src fails. This provides a very flexible fallback mechanism. (I recall seeing an attempt at an XHTML+SVG+MathML DTD/Schema. I think it was a success ;) ... But it did show how much work was required to manage all the permutations of languages. I also recall reading that using the object tag for inclusion of SVG and MathML is not recommended. Back to my developers hat--the Sidewinder Viewer does not need object tags, but it will automatically manage the Adobe plug-in for SVG, the Design Science plug-in for MathML and the formsPlayer plug-in for XForms. This means that you should be able to run the same document in Sidewinder, the appropriate build of Mozilla, Opera and so on.

Re: [svg-developers] RE: Read this Article?
In terms of history, VML, and the W3C: In April 1998, Adobe, IBM, Netscape and Sun co-submitted PGML to the W3C. (Common speculation was that this was really an Adobe thing, which I definitely can validate as being mostly true.) In May 1998, Microsoft, Macromedia, Visio, Autodesk and HP co-submitted. (Common speculation was that this was really a Microsoft thing, which seems pretty clear based on how they went and shipped it.) Earlier in 1998, there was a Web Schematic submission from Oxford-Brooks Univ. in England. In August, 1998, the W3C held its first SVG WG meeting. Between August and October 1998, the SVG WG discussed and then published requirements for the SVG language. Based on those requirements and the various ideas from the three submissions, the SVG WG systematically defined the SVG language in such a way as to meet the stated requirements. Some of SVG's features were modeled after PGML (e.g., the SMIL Animation features). Other features were more like VML (e.g., the compact path syntax and the use of CSS). PGML was basically just an XML expression of the PostScript graphics model, but adding web things like opacity, interactivity, scripting and animation. VML generally is pretty good, but it could not be accepted as is by the W3C. For example, it has some weirdnesses regarding coordinate systems where object sizing can have a discontinuity across rotation at the 45 degree angle point. The SVG WG did not feel it was good that rotating an object via an animation would cause a discontinuous jump in the dimensions of the object as you cross the various 45 degree angle positions. There were a handful of other issues about VML. Most of these stemmed from VML's heritage as an XML expression of the particular set of features that ship with Office, versus the W3C's interest in a general-purpose graphics language.

Re: [svg-developers] Re: Adobe please distribute SVG Viewer ...MASSIVELY !!!
Hi folks, As everyone knows very well by now, Adobe does not preannounce its product plans. Because of this, it is highly frustrating for me personally to not be able to provide details about what Adobe has under development, particularly to the pioneers in the SVG community who got on the bandwagon early and have helped all of the rest of us implement solutions. Unfortunately, all I can say at this point is that Adobe is working on a major viewer upgrade. Jon Ferraiolo Adobe Systems, Inc. At 01:25 PM 2/10/2005, welkerpaul wrote: Cor, you name it.

Flash succeeds because it can run just about anywhere in anything. http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/alternates/http://www.macromedia.com/shockwave/download/alternates/ Without that type of broad based support, SVG may never get past its boutique usage stage. Applying the same logic, however, the same could become of (the vector graphics part of) XAML unless some type of multi-platform, multi- browser XAML graphics rendering engine is made available. An alternative path would be for SVG, or a subset of it, to be absorbed into XHTML, which might (somewhat) force the hand of anyone creating something browser-like to support SVG. Let's face it - all most of us really need is some relatively simple vector graphics rendered in our browsers. All of the exotic filters and transforms and some of the more esoterica in SVG are in the nice to have category. I'd be deliriously happy to have SVG Basic or even SVG Tiny supported natively by all major browsers. In hindsight, VML was pretty darn close to what was needed. It is a shame that the divergence occurred. I don't pretend to understand the politics or dynamics, but in any case, it suc%s for everyone involved. For now, we're sticking to SVG on the server-side for dashboarding applications, but I hope that can change in the future. - Rick -Original Message- From: Cor Hofman (SC :) [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 10, 2005 2:07 PM To: svg-developers@yahoogroups.com Subject: RE: [svg-developers] Adobe please distribute SVG Viewer ...MASSIVELY !!! Hi, I have been following the SVG discussions for a couple of years now (and an early adopter as well). However the cry out to Adobe for support on SVG is quite old. Far too old To them it is just another business case. They 've invested some money and they want to see ROI now. In other words they need to have a profitable business model (paying customers!). Aparently they have not. Another gossip is that SVG could compete with their PDF technology (which is currently profitable!). The fact that this discussion lingers on and on, without possitive feedback from the (historical) biggest investor (or any other company for that matter) says more then enough I think. Unless there is a significant (profitable) demand for this technology shortly, MS will set
