Tips on which file formats work for different types of applications: Internet and screen media: Here one can use jpg, .png, .svg. The jpg file type is used for photo files. The .png file type is used for graphics and illustrations. The .svg file type is a vector-based file format intended for web and screen media.Printed media: .pdf format is the file format specifically designed to send printed matter with all fonts, text and graphics included in one file. It is a flexible format that has been an industry standard in the graphic business workflow for many years.Other areas of application: A final document may also be provided in .ai, .indd and .psd formats for example, if it is a design of original material, such as images, illustrations or logos. Either way, it should be noted that fonts are not included in the document. One either has to convert text into vector graphics or attach fonts when sending to others. Adobe’s own working documents such as .ai, .indd and .psd can also be used directly as original material across various Adobe applications. When delivering the final document, it is also important to keep in mind that fonts and graphics linked to the document should be available except for PDFs.

The new EBMS has been specified to utilize scalable vector graphics (SVG) to represent data. SVG is an emerging web standard for two-dimensional graphics. Like HTML, SVG is written in plain text and rendered by the browser, except that in this case, it is not just text that is rendered but also shapes and images, which can be animated and made interactive. SVG is written in XML and developed by the World Wide Web Consortium. Its scalable nature means that similar graphics can be used on 52” plasma monitors, lap tops or PDAs without loosing any of the resolution or functionality. Since SVG is XML based, points/data can be embedded in them so that graphics represent real time information. For example, colors and shapes of graphics representing temperature can be customized to appear different at different temperatures. Different alarms can show graphics differently making it easy for operator to decipher and act on alarms. Most of the data generated from a BAS are never stored and hence never analyzed.
Software Architectures for Mobile Multimedia Wireless Devices

BREW is known for efficient development of multimedia applications because of the direct porting of the BREW components on hardware and chip-based firmware. 3D graphics and gaming applications needing high interactivity operate more efficiently because of this architecture. In addition, scalable vector graphics (SVG) can be directly integrated with BREW. SVG is scalable over multiple display sizes, has smaller file sizes than rasterized or bit mapped formats, such as JPEG or BMP, has rich text options, interactivity, and can be created by powerful tools, such as Adobe Go Live CS2, or Ikivo® Animator. BREW supports SVG animation and playback including play, pause, and rewind of content. It has APIs for key presses, rotate, pan, zoom focus, pointers, and key presses.
Story Analysis Using Natural Language Processing and Interactive Dashboards
Published in Journal of Computer Information Systems, 2022
Story Analyzer’s user interface rests largely on Data Driven Documents (D3), which is a Javascript API for working with Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG). SVG is an XML-based standard for representing DOM-compliant element that can be embedded with HTML on a web page. D3 is the JavaScript API for working with SVG elements. Using SVG and D3 it is possible to create very powerful visualizations by combining and grouping a variety of basic interactive elements such as lines, rectangles, circles, polygons, and text elements into higher-level multi-element graphics. Using D3, the programmer has fine-tooth control over not just the chart as a whole, but all the underlying layers of elements that make up the chart.
