dvisvgm

The command-line utility dvisvgm is a tool for TEX/LATEX users. It converts DVI, EPS, and PDF files to the XML-based vector graphics format SVG. In contrast to bitmap graphics, vector graphics are arbitrarily scalable without loss of quality. All modern web browsers support a large amount of the current SVG standard 1.1. Furthermore, SVG files can also be displayed with the Java-based Squiggle SVG browser which is part of the Apache Batik project, and the free vector graphics editor Inkscape.

Features

Supports classic DVI files (format version 2), pTEX DVI files in vertical mode (version 3), and XDV files as generated by XeTeX (versions 5, 6, and 7)
Options --eps and --pdf allow to convert EPS and PDF files to SVG
Complete font support including virtual fonts, evaluation of font encodings, CMap files, sub-font definitions and font maps
Glyph outlines of all required fonts are embedded into the generated SVG files
The font data can be embedded in SVG, TrueType, WOFF, or WOFF2 format
Glyph outlines of fonts that are not available in a vector format are generated on-the-fly by vectorizing METAFONT’s bitmap output
dvisvgm allows to replace font elements by paths so that applications without SVG font support are enabled to render dvisvgm’s output properly
