PlutoSVG is a compact and efficient SVG rendering library written in C. It is specifically designed for parsing and rendering SVG documents embedded in OpenType fonts, providing an optimal balance between speed and minimal memory usage. It is also suitable for rendering scalable icons.
#include <plutosvg.h>
#include <stdio.h>
int main(void)
{
plutosvg_document_t* document = plutosvg_document_load_from_file("camera.svg", -1, -1);
if(document == NULL) {
printf("Unable to load: camera.svg\n");
return -1;
}
plutovg_surface_t* surface = plutosvg_document_render_to_surface(document, NULL, -1, -1, NULL, NULL, NULL);
plutovg_surface_write_to_png(surface, "camera.png");
plutosvg_document_destroy(document);
plutovg_surface_destroy(surface);
return 0;
}

#include FT_MODULE_H

// Initialize the FreeType library
