SVGZ to SVG

Convert SVGZ to SVG using C#

SVGZ is a compressed version of the SVG file format, which is widely used for vector graphics on the web. Although SVGZ offers performance benefits due to its smaller file size, sometimes you may need to convert it back to the uncompressed SVG format. With Aspose.SVG for .NET , converting SVGZ to SVG is quick and easy.

Why Convert SVGZ to SVG?

SVGZ files are ideal for web use due to their reduced size, but in many cases, it is advisable to convert them back to standard SVG. Uncompressed SVG files are easier to edit, debug, and view and are better supported by older systems and software, allowing for wider compatibility and ease of collaboration. Here is a simple C# code snippet to convert a compressed SVGZ file to a standard SVG:

using Aspose.Svg.Saving;
...

    // Load an SVG document
	SVGDocument document = new SVGDocument("document.svgz");
	
	// Save the document as SVGZ
	document.Save("document.svgz", SVGSaveFormat.SVG);

Steps to Save SVGZ as SVG

1. Load an SVG document using one of the SVGDocument() constructors.
2. Call the Save(path, saveFormat) method with SVGSaveFormat.SVG to export it as an uncompressed SVG. The resulting SVG file will maintain all the structural elements and visual accuracy of the original graphic without any compression.
