+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.
