Since SVG is an XML-based language, with a bit of XSLT hacking, you

The latter, although more verbose, could be manipulated by standard XSLT
methods. The former requires deep XPath kung fu and declarative
recursion programming to pick apart. The SVG folks went for conciseness
rather than ease of transformation. :-(
If you're lookiing for a good SVG reader, you
One thing you could try is to read the SVG in as Java2D shapes and then
try to convert the 2D path shapes to 3D ones.
I've written a light weight SVG parser which will soon be uploaded to

I have a bunch of art in Illustrator that I'd like to render as flat polygonal meshes.
By default, AI
can export to SVG and DXF: the SVG files look pretty good in third-party SVG viewers,
however
the DXF files look awful (not to mention that only a few components of them actually
load using

another idea is that you take the .ai format direct and load it into a

That's always a possibility, but I'd have to pick up both the SVG and X3D
specs. I don't know about X3D, but I've heard the SVG format is fairly

Have you took a look at the loader archive at http://java3d.virtualworlds.de
? At least for DXF there is one more loader listed there.
