Adobe SVG Viewer 3.01 supports much of the W3C Recommended Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) 1.0 Specification published on 4 September, 2001.
Due to the extereme diversity of Linux configurations it is not possible to guarantee that Adobe SVG Viewer for x86 Linux will run on any particular configuration. However, since v3.01 uses Netscape 4 plug-in architecture (which most browsers support) and has a fairly limited dependencies on system shared libraries, it should work over wide range of system configurations.
/usr/local (creating it if it doesn't exist).
You should be able to use any other location, but it was not extensively tested.
tar xzvf adobesvg-3.01-linux-i386.tar.gz.
adobesvg-3.01/install.sh.
If you want to install plug-in for another browser which supports
Netscape plug-ins, you can copy the file libNPSVG3.so in the installation
folder to your browser's plugins folder (or make a symbolic link if
the browser loads symbolically linked plug-ins - recent versions of
Mozilla do not). The plug-in will try to find other libraries at the path
in ADOBE_SVG_VIEWER_PATH environment variable (if it is set),
or by either looking into /usr/local/adobesvg (which install.sh will
symbolically link to your SVG plug-in instalation). If libNPSVG3.so
is symbolically linked to the SVG plug-in installation folder and /proc
filesystem is mounted, the plug-in will find the libraries through that
symbolic link, so environment variable is not necessary.
If you want to install plug-in, but you don't have root access to the
computer, switch to the folder where you want installation to be performed,
run tar xzvf adobesvg-3.01-linux-i386.tar.gz followed by
adobesvg-3.01/install.sh --local
Also, you can follow these steps:
tar xzvf adobesvg-3.01-linux-i386.tar.gz. This
will create adobesvg-3.01 subfolder - which is your SVG viewer installation
folder. You can rename it if you want at this step.
$HOME/.mozilla/plugins if it does
not exist.
$HOME/.mozilla/plugins does not contain
any SVG plug-in libraries (libNPSVG*.so), delete them if necessary.
libNPSVG3.so from the SVG plug-in installation folder to
$HOME/.mozilla/plugins
ADOBE_SVG_VIEWER_PATH to the full path of the SVG
viewer installation folder. Make sure it is set up in your .cshrc
or .profile (or other startup file) depending on the shell that you
use.
Once you install Adobe SVG Viewer, you should be able to view supported SVG files in any supported Web browser.
You can use ADOBE_SVG_OPTIONS environment variable to affect certain settings in the viewer. ADOBE_SVG_OPTIONS can be set to a list of property values in the form of property=value, separated by commas. Here is the list of properties:
You can export SVG from Adobe Illustrator 9 and above. If you wish to incorporate JavaScript into your SVG you can create your artwork in Illustrator and link to JavaScript functions with the JavaScript Interactivity Palette and then export it as SVG or export from Illustrator and add any JavaScript interactivity animation or filter effects by hand. You can place SVG into Adobe GoLive 5 software using the Preview Mode or use the GoLive Outline and Source Views to modify the SVG source code. You may for example add or modify JavaScript add or update links to images fonts or audio files or add or update SVG elements and their attributes.
x, y,
width, and height attributes on filter
elements in order to minimize the area over which the filter effect needs to
be calculated. This will result in graphics which display much more quickly.

// Retrieve the SVG document object:
var directTarget = evt.getTarget();
var svgDocument;
if( directTarget.getNodeType() != 9 ) // if not DOCUMENT_NODE
svgDocument = directTarget.getOwnerDocument();
else
svgDocument = directTarget;
