What is a .SVG file?

SVG is an XML-based vector image format that scales to any size without losing quality. Opened in browsers, Inkscape and Adobe Illustrator.

Did you know
  • SVG became a W3C web standard in 2001.
  • Because SVG is XML text, its shapes, paths and styles can be created, edited or animated directly with scripting and CSS, no image editor required.
  • SVG was chosen by the W3C over two competing proposals, Microsoft and Macromedia’s VML and Adobe and Sun’s PGML, which it effectively merged ideas from.
  • A .SVG file is plain text, so you can open and edit it in any text editor.
  • On the web a .SVG file is served with the MIME type image/svg+xml.
