SVG/XML Serializer

The SVG serializer serializes sax events to SVG XML. The output of the SVG serializer is SVG XML; the SVG XML is not rasterized to any image format by this serializer.

  • Name : svgxml
  • Class: org.apache.cocoon.serialization.XMLSerializer
  • Cacheable: yes

    doctype-public="-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN"
    doctype-system="http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd";
