Scour Description

A free Python and CLI based tool that takes an input SVG and outputs a cleaner, more concise SVG file Scour is an open-source and free Python script that will help you clean SVG files, removing a lot of 'cruft' that certain tools or authors embed into their documents. The Scour of scour is to provide an identically rendered image (i.e. a scoured document should have no discernable visible differences from the original file).WARNING: Scour is intended to be run on files that have been edited in Vector Graphics editors such as Inkscape or Adobe Illustrator. Scour attempts to optimize the file, and as result, it will change the file's structure and (possibly) its semantics. If you have hand-edited your SVG files, you will probably not be happy with the output of Scour. NEVER USE SCOUR TO OVERWRITE YOUR ORIGINAL FILE! Requirements: · Python What's New in This Release: · Fix Bug 368716 by implementing a really tiny CSS parser to find out if any style element have rules referencing gradients, filters, etc · Remove unused attributes from parent elements · Fix a bug with polygon/polyline point parsing if there was whitespace at the end
