There are four SVG
devices:
produces SVG 1.1 files.
When used in the HTML destination, if your procedure produces multiple
graphs, the SVG device produces separate SVG files for each graph.
When used in the LISTING destination, the SVG device produces one
SVG file, and the pages are in a continuous layout.
produces SVG 1.1 files
that are transparent (no background). These files are useful when
you want to overlay several graphs on top of each other and you want
all of the graphs to be visible. The SVGT device is intended for use
when a procedure produces multiple graphs and is best used in conjunction
with the ODS PRINTER destination.
See Creating Overlaid Transparent SVG Documents in SAS Language Reference: Concepts for more information.
produces compressed
SVG 1.1 files, which are useful when file size is an issue. However,
some browsers do not support compressed SVG files, and you cannot
view these files in a text editor.
(See
also Browsers That Support SVG Files.)
produces SVG 1.1 files
with navigational controls when the SVG file contains multiple pages.
This device is primarily for use in the LISTING destination with procedures
that produce multiple graphs. The navigational controls enable you
to page through the graphs.
See Example: Generating a Single SVG File with Multiple Pages and Page Controls. When used in the HTML destination,
the SVGVIEW device produces separate SVG files for each graph, just
like the SVG device.
