+FOP supports some svg rendering. SVG is supported as an instream-foreign-object
+embedded in an FO document. FOP also supports rendering of an external SVG image.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+Since the intream object that contains the SVG returns a single fo area then
+the construction of the SVG document is handled differently. The SVG is created
+by calling the <code>createGraphic()</code> on each SVG element. The element is then
+responsible for loading the necessary information and child elements and creating
+the corresponding SVG DOM element. When the FO tree is being layed out the
+SVG tree is turned into the SVG DOM document which is stored for later rendering.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+The SVG document is then held as a DOM tree which is then rendered by going through
+the elements of the tree and rendering then in turn.
+</p>
+
+<p>
+For more information see the SVG documentation.

<p>c) Fop supports SVG (see <jump href="implemented.html">Features</jump> for further information) and
needs the w3c.jar library. This library comes with Fop (xml-fop/lib) and must
- be included in your classpath
+ be included in your classpath. The jar file w3c.jar is the compiled classes for the
+ java svg bindings with some other DOM classes that are used by the SVG DOM bindings.
+ The source for the svg java binding classes can be found at - <jump href="http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/CR-SVG-20000802/java.html">
+ SVG Java bindings</jump>, currently they correspond to the CR-SVG-20000802 specification document.

<p>d) Optional: Fop supports the jimi library for image processing, if it is in your classpath
when you build Fop.
