SVG Templating

This Project is to demostrate a very basic svg templating workflow. It can help to batch process lots of data into svg files.

Works with Python 3.6.

Installation

After cloning the repository, please install the requirements

pip install -r requirements.txt

Usage

Modify the code to your needs, and run it by executing

python svg_templating.py

Postprocessing

Sometimes output in the pdf format might be required. This can be achieved by using convert and a for-loop.

for file in *.svg; do; convert ${file} `basename ${file} .jpg`.pdf; done

To combine all output pdfs into one file (e.g. for printing) pdfjam/pdfjoin can be used.

pdfjoin dnb-dbsm-boe-bl-p-00*.pdf --outfile cards.pdf

Please note, that you have to adapt the first part of the filename wildcard to your needs, if you happen to choose different files.

Know Issues

All Files to be put in the template should have the same/similar aspect ratios. Otherwise, they will be stretched to match the aspect ratio defined in the template.

Preprocessing can be made with imagemagick command line tools like mogrify.
