You have partially right. If no extra support is configured your SVG graphics are converted to poor bitmaps. It is certainly enough in some conditions. But if you are looking for high quality images on print, you need vector conversion. Batik and Inkscape offer vector conversion. -- Manveru jabber: [email protected] gg: 1624001 http://www.manveru.pl
