It will use the RSVG library if compiled with that option, otherwise it will use its SVG to MVG converter to draw the SVG as best it can.

GIF can also be used but its limitations do not make it a good recomendation. WARNING WARNING WARNING... ImageMagick is a Raster Image processor. Sure it can read and write vector graphic image formats but only as a conversion for raster images. See...
