As any reliable web design company would agree, scalable vector files are going to be the first choice of viewing documents on the internet. This is because these files can be searched and indexed by all major search engines. They can be printed and zoomed with high quality at any desired resolution.

Scalable Vector Graphics, a new technology is an XML based tool that enables quick conversion of files. Companies can easily handle their files with SVG tools. SVG, along with an HTML5 document viewer will help to view the required documents with great clarity.

This unique graphic system helps to scale and clearly display all types of images at any zoom level. Best of all, SVG is supported by all modern web browsers so there is no compatibility issue. Let us look at some of the obvious benefits of this new technology.  User- friendly technology: Scalable Vector Graphics uses technology like CSS, AJAX, JavaScript and DOM that web programmers are already familiar with. This makes it easy for them to understand SVG technology and work with it efficiently.  Server- side and client- side generation: SVG XML can be manipulated both on the server using PHP, NET,Pythonor other language or framework, and on the client using JavaScript for purposes such as animation, or to create dynamics or interactive effects.  SEO- friendly: SVG provides better search engine optimization. This is because SVG increasesdownload speed of web pages thereby improving their Google page ranking. Moreover, search engines like Google, Bing and Yahoo can easily index the text content that is embedded irrespective of whether it is embedded directly into HTML or is a standalone file.  Compatibility:This format is backward and forward compatible. The facilities offered

by SVG rendering machines may be different, and they will render what they can and ignore the rest.  Small size files: In SVG, logos and charts (Vector images) have smaller sizes than bitmapped images (JPG, PNG, GIF). Advantages include extra memory space and enhanced performance on tablets, smartphones, laptops and servers.  W3C Standards: SVG is an open standard created by the World Wide Web Consortium. It can be used across various platforms along with other XML languages.

SVG XML code is now widely used and can be created, verified, compressed and manipulated using various tools like Notepad and Inkscape among others. ďƒ˜ Easily Accessible: SVG source code is in XML format which makes both drawing and text elements machine readable to screen readers as well as other devices that can parse the source and create the images. ďƒ˜ Web applications: SVG can be easily incorporated to HTML5 and web-based applications. It supports major browsers like Internet Explorer9+, Firefox 4+, Chrome 4+ and Safari 4+.

If all the benefits offered by SVG are to be enjoyed, the primary requisite is a powerful server- side technology. Without this technology conversion of documents into SVG format becomes difficult and SVG documents may have many issues. SVG conversion tools are available online but these may have flaws. When selecting a solution, it is vital to focus on the type of SVG conversion technology and practice that is being used.
