I've tried the following using V5.1 on Mac OS X 10.4
p1 = Plot[Sin[x], {x, 0, 2Pi}]
Export["p1.svg", p1, "SVG"]
p2 = Plot3D[Sin[x y], {x, 0, 2¼}, {y, 0, 2Pi}]
Export["p2.svg", p2, "SVG"]
I tried viewing the output from Export in Firefox, Safari and Inkscape. ( I
incorrectly said earlier that SVG was native in firefox. I think that an svg
viewer is part of the bundle.)
Firefox 1.06
Both p1.svg and p2.svg looked the same as in Mathematica
I could zoom in on the pictures but not zoom out.
Safari 2.0
Both p1.svg and p2.svg looked the same as in Mathematica
I could zoom in on the pictures but not zoom out. Zooming in made the
figures centre incorrectly.
Inkscape 0.42 (www.inkscape.org)
The tick numbering in p1.svg was raised slightly and overlapped the axis.
However because inskcape is an SVG creator it is and was easy to fix this.
p2.svg looked the same as in Mathematica
I didn't try incorporating fonts because the post below doesn't indicate
which fonts are not properly supported.
Cheers
Mike
