[pdftex] Re: .svg and pdflatex

[h+i]

As svg is vector graphic, there are commands like "Draw a line from 
coordinates (n,m) to coordinates (x,y). Very much like pstricks or 
postscript, which both would serve our purposes. It is strange that until 
now nobody has developed a (simple?) "translator".
