Indexing SVG files

[dvanesse]

Any idea how I can index .SVG files (<text> tags only) ?
Is there a plugin available?


Many thanks in advance

I think this is the first request for Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) file support.

But I think SVG is basically an XML file. And we support indexing of XML files. So it is entirely possible that a SVG file might be indexable by the current software.

I created this test SVG file

<?xml version="1.0" standalone="no"?> 
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN"
"[URL]http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd[/URL]">
<text font-size="15" font-family="sans-serif"
    font-weight="bold" fill="#E76F00"
    transform="translate(15,0) scale(2)"
    y="-10 0 10 20 30 30 30 40 50 60
    70 80 90 100 110 100 90 80">
    SVG has fancy text</text>
 
   <text font-size="15" font-family="sans-serif"
    font-weight="bold" fill="#B2BC00" 
    transform="scale(2) rotate(45)" x="75" 
    y="-95">Isn't this cool!</text> 
</svg>

I then added, .SVG to the list of file types to be indexed. And indexed this SVG file.

The following words were extracted.
SVG
fancy
text
Isn't
this
cool

So by a happy accident it seems we already provide SVG support, without the need for a plug-in, (at least for simple SVG files, as I didn't text anything more complex that the above example).
