SVG and S1000D

Lynn Hales makes an important point Last Updated: 2006-09-16

Up to and including the forthcoming Issue 2.3 (currently available version is Issue 2.2) of S1000D DOES NOT support the use of SVG graphics. See chapter 7.2 paragraph 3.

So anyone considering migrating to S1000D and using SVG should look very closely at what is acceptable. My understanding right now is that SVG is acceptable for authoring, but not for delivery.

For those die hard SVG supporters, I am not responsible for the S1000D position. The SVG community is working to have it approved, but is meeting stiff resistance. So what I am saying is don't try to argue this point with me.
