Printing

In addition to the accurate color control SVG offers through ICC color support, your SVG images are capable of printing at the maximum resolution of any printer. Instead of printing jagged screen resolution images, your SVG images will print with smooth edges and clean gradients. SVG documents are printable with all the same graphics rendering features as displayed on-screen. Any embedded fonts and unusual glyphs, as well as filter effects, will print. Another feature is that the current displayed state of the image is printed. Also, if you have zoomed in or out or panned the image, that state of the image is printed.

With the example below, select different viewing modes, try zooming in and out of the image, and then print the result from your browser.
