tikztosvg(1)
The tikztosvg(1)
command renders TikZ diagrams to SVG, using TeXLive and pdf2svg.
Usage
$ tikztosvg [OPTION]... INPUT_PATH
If INPUT_PATH is set to - the input will be read from stdin.
Options
-o, --output=OUTPUT_PATH Write output to file OUTPUT_PATH. If set to - the output will be written to stdout. Defaults to the base name of the input file suffixed with the .svg extension. The file is resolved relative to the working directory.
-p, --package=+PACKAGE Include \usepackage{PACKAGE}
when rendering the diagram. The tikz, tikz-cd, pgfplots, amsmath and amssymb packages are always included by default.
-l, --library=+LIBRARY Include \usetikzlibrary{LIBRARY}
when rendering the diagram.
-q, --quiet Silence application log messages and script warnings.
--lualatex Use LuaTeX as the TeX engine. LuaTeX is already the default, so this option doesn't really do much.
--xelatex Use XeTeX as the TeX engine.
--pdflatex Use pdfTeX as the TeX engine.
-h, --help Print a help message.
-v, --version Print version information.
Example
Let’s say you want to convert the file example.tikz
to SVG
\begin{tikzcd} G \arrow{r}{\varphi} \arrow[two heads]{d} & H \\ \mathlarger{\sfrac{G}{\ker \varphi}} \arrow[dotted]{ru} & \end{tikzcd}
You could achieve this by running
$ # xfrac and relsize are only there so that we can $ # call \sfrac and \mathlarger $ tikztosvg -p xfrac -p relsize example.tikz
The results will be stored in the file example.svg
.
Dependencies
- A regular TeXLive installation: you'll need LuaTeX and optionally XeTeX and pdfTeX
- pdf2svg
