This program converts SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) images
into standard IFF DR2D format.

NB: the 68k build should be considered beta software.


USAGE
=====

svg2dr2d SVG=INPUT/A,DR2D=OUTPUT/A

Example:
svg2dr2d drawing.svg drawing.iff

Converts the SVG file drawing.iff into an IFF DR2D drawing.iff


LIMITATIONS
===========

svg2dr2d supports everything that libsvgtiny can decode from SVGs,
except text (which is encoded in the DR2D but doesn't display for
unknown reasons).

If SVGs do not convert properly, it is worth checking that
libsvgtiny can actually decode them.  An easy way to find out is
to try displaying them with the OS4 version of NetSurf.

The 68k version has received very little testing.  It does work
but frequently crashes.  This appears to be partly down to stack
usage, so ensure you set a large stack (eg. STACK 500000) before
calling the executable.  It also appears to introduce errors in
the output DR2D which the OS4 build does not.
