Re: [docbook-apps] Epub2 and SVG
It actually turns out most problems are caused by the quality of the Visio SVG output.

 

Biggest problem is the unit-less definition of font-size in the text/css section, which results in extremely small text. Visio svg also omits xlink namespace definition and has problems with arrow heads.

 

After rudimentary cleanup, resulting epub with SVG renders OK in a number of readers.

I am curious about other people's approach to using SVG in Epub2.

IIRC Epub2, the spec, doesn't mention SVG? Perhaps that is why

most readers don't render well?
