The three ma<strong>in</strong> toolkits we exam<strong>in</strong>ed for our server-size rasterization were Batik, GNOME’s<br />
librsvg, and Inkscape <strong>in</strong> batch mode. Batik’s renderer was most mature, but also the slowest,<br />
and depends on a Java environment. Inkscape would render the same as most of our editors<br />
would see <strong>in</strong> their author<strong>in</strong>g environment, but us<strong>in</strong>g a giant GUI app for conversion was<br />
heavyweight and harder to ma<strong>in</strong>ta<strong>in</strong>. librsvg, designed to render <strong>SVG</strong> icons and previews<br />
throughout the GNOME desktop environment, gave pretty decent render<strong>in</strong>g <strong>in</strong> most cases<br />
while be<strong>in</strong>g much faster and easier to deploy on a L<strong>in</strong>ux server environment.
