EchoSVG is a fork of Apache Batik, a Java based toolkit for applications which handle images in the Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format for various purposes, such as viewing, generation or manipulation.
Supports level 4 CSS selectors and level 4 colors (including colors with alpha channel), as well as many other improvements over Batik.
Like Batik, EchoSVG is built on SVG 1.1 although also supports part of the (deprecated) SVG 1.2 specification and a few bits of SVG2 (like the namespaceless href attribute).
The SVG 1.1 standard is based on CSS2, however EchoSVG supports level 4 colors (albeit with gamut mapping to the sRGB color space), as well as level 4 selectors.
And with the CSSTranscodingHelper, it can render many documents that use modern CSS. For an example of the CSS that can be processed with EchoSVG, please look at this sample test file featuring custom properties, @supports and level 4 @media rules.
EchoSVG is compatible with Java 8 and later, although module-info files are provided for modular JDKs.
If you wonder why EchoSVG was created and which are the reasons to use it instead of Batik, please check Why EchoSVG.
