Hello,
I'm a ConTeXt (and LaTeX too) user. When I want to make a vector
picture, I'm trying most of the time to use programs who can export
PGF/TikZ or PStricks.
A lot of users like me don't "program" their vector pictures and use
wysiwyg programs like Inkscape or Illustrator to generate PStricks ou
PGF/TikZ code. Of course whatever program used, we can
find a SVG export. SVG is the most spread and the most used format to
store vector pictures.
I request a native support for SVG in XeTeX and in LuaTeX, I think it
would be a great thing.
Of course when I want to include SVG pictures in my documents I can
convert them to pdf before but the problem is that labels and texts
won't be compiled : fonts will be wrong.
What do you think about this ? Do you think it's something possible ?
it would involve parsing of the svg code and that's real low on my
agenda (svg is not my favourite format with all this data in
attributes while actually it should in element and properly structured)

Hello everybody, hello Hans,
I was reading this old message I posted about ten months ago.
I found scripts written in perl or python to include svg pictures in pdf
but that's not really good (to me) and it doesn't work with any pdf
viewer (it also requires a plugin installation in adobe acrobat ...). I
was thinking about the mars project :
http://labs.adobe.com/technologies/mars/
I thought that maybe the day when luatex and this new pdfxml format
would be stable enough, it could be conceivable to give luatex this
ability to produce pdfxml files and maybe it would make easier the
integration of svg images in this pdfxml without having to parse svg
code. What do you think ? Pdfxml could be a good opportunity for luatex
users ?
