On Thu, 2 Apr 2009 Martin Gieseking submitted an update to the
dvisvgm
package.
Location on CTAN: /dviware/dvisvgm License type: gpl
Announcement text: ---------------------------------------------------------------------- dvisvgm is a command-line utility that converts DVI files to SVG.
The latest release introduces a caching mechanism for vectorized bitmap fonts. The slowest part during a DVI to SVG conversion using dvisvgm is the call of Metafont and the following vectorization of its bitmap output. To increase the conversion speed in this area, dvisvgm now keeps information about the vectorized glyphs in cache files for future usage. This avoids multiple Metafont calls for the same fonts as well as repeated vectorizations of the same glyphs.
To reduce the length of font path description a bit, dvisvgm now generates SVG shorthand path commands if possible.
