As far as I know ODG is based on SVG but not as extensive.

If necessary I'd like to see Draw modified to be able to cope with the full SVG spec. In the future that could lead to a lot of powerful extensions to OOo and aid interoperability. > > Bernhard > > --------------------------------------------------------------------- > To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Ian -- www.theINGOTS.org www.schoolforge.org.uk www.opendocumentfellowship.org --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
