Quoting Daniel Carrera <dcarrera@...674...>:
My understanding (I'm no expert) is that OpenDocument uses only one format for images, but they regularly copied SVG attributes, using an svg: namespace. For example, here is a rectangle:
<draw:rect draw:style-name="gr1" draw:text-style-name="P1" draw:layer="layout" svg:width="7.62cm" svg:height="5.715cm" svg:x="8.89cm" svg:y="9.525cm">
Ugh, I hope that's not the way it's actually done.
Most SVG attributes have no meaning in isolation; it's the elements they're attached to that give them meaning (by definition -- most SVG attributes live in per-element-type partitions, not the global attribute partition).
Actually, since SVG width/height/etc attributes live in per-element-type partitions, it's probably also improper to be inventing "SVG" attribtues in the global attribute partition like that...
