Scalable vector graphics (SVG) is a subset of XML that combines graphics with programming to control web images. This introduction to SVG for web designers describes its syntax and document structure, then explains how to create images with basic shapes, format text, add colors and patterns, apply filter elements, animate graphics, and work with SVG images in Illustrator and CorelDRAW.
