Load SVG document with options Leave feedback

Option	Description
Format	The document type is auto-detected during loading, but you can explicitly specify the source format as SVG
MinimumWidth	Set minimum width for converting SVG document. Used when converting to raster formats. Default value is 800.
MinimumHeight	Set minimum height for converting SVG document. Used when converting to raster formats. Default value is 600.
CropToContentBounds	Gets or sets a value indicating whether to crop the SVG bounding box to the content bounds before conversion. Default value is false.
ExecuteScripts	Whether the document’s scripts run while it loads and converts. Default: false. Available since version 26.10.
ExternalResourceHandler	A handler called for each resource the document asks to load; it can allow the resource, skip it or supply its content. Default: null. Available since version 26.10.
SkipExternalResources	Whether to skip the external resources the document references, such as linked images and stylesheets. Default: true. Content the document carries, local files inside its folder and resources that match `WhitelistedResources` still load.
WhitelistedResources	Absolute URI prefixes, such as `https://cdn.example.com/assets/`, of external resources to load while `SkipExternalResources` is true. Since version 26.10, an entry that is not an absolute URI prefix makes the load fail with `InvalidLoadOptionsException`.

Note
Since version 26.10, an SVG or SVGZ document converted without load options gets SvgLoadOptions, so external resources are skipped and scripts do not run unless you allow them. Earlier versions used PageDescriptionLanguageLoadOptions, which has no external resource control. See Skip loading of external resources.

Load SVG file

The following code snippet shows how to load an SVG file with explicit format specification:

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Load;

Func<LoadContext, LoadOptions> getLoadOptions = loadContext => new SvgLoadOptions
{
    Format = PageDescriptionLanguageFileType.Svg
};

using (Converter converter = new Converter("vector-graphic.svg", getLoadOptions))
{
    PdfConvertOptions options = new PdfConvertOptions();
    converter.Convert("vector-graphic.pdf", options);
}

Load SVG with custom dimensions

The following code snippet shows how to load an SVG file with custom minimum dimensions for raster format conversion:

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Load;

Func<LoadContext, LoadOptions> getLoadOptions = loadContext => new SvgLoadOptions
{
    Format = PageDescriptionLanguageFileType.Svg,
    MinimumWidth = 1200,
    MinimumHeight = 900
};

using (Converter converter = new Converter("logo.svg", getLoadOptions))
{
    ImageConvertOptions options = new ImageConvertOptions
    {
        Format = ImageFileType.Png
    };
    converter.Convert("logo.png", options);
}

Load SVG with crop to content bounds

The following code snippet shows how to load an SVG file with cropping to content bounds:

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Load;

Func<LoadContext, LoadOptions> getLoadOptions = loadContext => new SvgLoadOptions
{
    Format = PageDescriptionLanguageFileType.Svg,
    CropToContentBounds = true
};

using (Converter converter = new Converter("icon.svg", getLoadOptions))
{
    PdfConvertOptions options = new PdfConvertOptions();
    converter.Convert("icon.pdf", options);
}

Convert SVG to page description language format

The following code snippet shows how to load an SVG file and convert it to XPS format:

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Load;

Func<LoadContext, LoadOptions> getLoadOptions = loadContext => new SvgLoadOptions
{
    Format = PageDescriptionLanguageFileType.Svg
};

using (Converter converter = new Converter("diagram.svg", getLoadOptions))
{
    PageDescriptionLanguageConvertOptions options = new PageDescriptionLanguageConvertOptions
    {
        Format = PageDescriptionLanguageFileType.Xps
    };
    converter.Convert("diagram.xps", options);
}

Convert SVG to Word document

The following code snippet shows how to load an SVG file and convert it to a Word document:

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Load;

Func<LoadContext, LoadOptions> getLoadOptions = loadContext => new SvgLoadOptions
{
    Format = PageDescriptionLanguageFileType.Svg
};

using (Converter converter = new Converter("infographic.svg", getLoadOptions))
{
    WordProcessingConvertOptions options = new WordProcessingConvertOptions();
    converter.Convert("infographic.docx", options);
}

Convert SVG to HTML

The following code snippet shows how to load an SVG file and convert it to HTML:

using GroupDocs.Conversion;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.FileTypes;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Convert;
using GroupDocs.Conversion.Options.Load;

Func<LoadContext, LoadOptions> getLoadOptions = loadContext => new SvgLoadOptions
{
    Format = PageDescriptionLanguageFileType.Svg
};

using (Converter converter = new Converter("chart.svg", getLoadOptions))
{
    WebConvertOptions options = new WebConvertOptions();
    converter.Convert("chart.html", options);
}
