Scour is a Python module that aggressively cleans SVG files, removing a lot of
unnecessary information that certain tools or authors embed into their
documents. The goal of scour is to provide an identically rendered image
(i.e. a scoured document should have no discernible visible differences from
the original file) while minimizing the file size.
.
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.
.
This package provides the "scour" command line utility and a dh_scour
debhelper extension which optimizes all shipped SVGs during package build. If
gir1.2-rsvg-2.0 and python3-gi-cairo are available, it will also do a
before/after comparison and discard the optimized image if they differ by more
than 0.05%.
