Hi Michel,

This is a good point. I think that the benefits of using SVG as basis for
the PDF pages are somewhat diminished if Adobe's extensions break what would
otherwise be valid SVG and thus render in other viewing agents...so instead
of...

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<svg width="100" height="100" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";>
  <rect fill="rgb(0,0,255) device-color(DeviceGray,0)" x="25" y="25"
width="50" height="50"/>
</svg>

...the following document would be conformant and developers working with
Mars would be clued-in as to what was Adobe and what was SVG spec.

<?xml version="1.0"?>
<svg width="100" height="100"
  xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg";
  xmlns:pdf="http://ns.adobe.com/pdf/2006";>
  <rect fill="rgb(0,0,255)" pdf:fill="device-color(DeviceGray,0)" x="25"
y="25" width="50" height="50"/>
</svg>

Leonard, you mentioned in an earlier post that you would look into fully
supporting SVGT. How was the response from others in the Mars team to that?

Pete
