            Bug ID: 359555
           Summary: Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) support
           Product: okular
           Version: unspecified
          Platform: Other
                OS: Linux
            Status: UNCONFIRMED
          Severity: wishlist
          Priority: NOR
         Component: New backend wishes
          Assignee: okular-devel at kde.org
          Reporter: fischer at unix-ag.uni-kl.de

Back in the KDE4 days, there was a SVG rendering KPart that allowed viewing SVG
files (Scalable Vector Graphics) from within Konqueror. Said SVG KPart seems to
be dead now, the latest code commit is from 2011.
My proposal is to scrap whatever code is useful (it relies most likely on Qt's
QSvgRenderer class) and build a backend for Okular. I would even assume that
parts of the PDF renderer can be re-used, as a SVG graphics (apart from
animations that I personally see as non-essential) is in many aspects like a
single-page PDF file.

Reproducible: Always
