A module for patching matplotlib-generated SVG files to make them work Affinity Designer.

Project description

AffinitySvgPatcher

Patches Matplotlib-generated svg to be able to open them properly in Affinity Designer.

It can be yours simply though

pip install AffinitySvgPatcher

Usage

From python

from AffinitySvgPatcher import AffinitySvgPatcher

patcher = AffinitySvgPatcher('path/to/file.svg')
patcher.patch_svg(save = True, save_dir = 'dir/to/save', postfix = '-patched')

From command line

AffinitySvgPatcher path/to/file.svg --postfix patched --dir .

Patches

For now I have discovered the following tricks:

in text elements, replace font attributes with font-size and font-family (font is apparently ignored by AD),
in xlink:href (which are deprecated) replace x and y attributes with transform=translate(x y) (AD seems to ignore x or y attributes).

If more issues become known, PRs or GH issues are welcome! :)
