CTAN update: dvisvgm
dvisvgm is a command-line utility that converts DVI files to SVG. The recent version 2.0.1 adds the new command-line option --font-format that allows to select the format used to embed font data into the generated SVG files. Besides the default SVG format, following alternatives are supported now: TrueType, WOFF, and WOFF2. Especially, WOFF is supported by almost all recent web browsers so that the text elements present in the SVG files are rendered correctly. For further information including a more detailed list of changes, and pre-compiled binaries for Windows/MiKTeX, see the project page http://dvisvgm.bplaced.net.

dvisvgm – Convert DVI, EPS, and PDF files to Scalable Vector Graphics format (SVG)
Dvisvgm is a command line utility that converts TeX DVI as well as EPS and PDF files to the XML-based Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) format. It provides full font support including virtual fonts, font maps, and sub-fonts. If necessary, dvisvgm vectorizes METAFONT’s bitmap output in order to always create lossless scalable output. The embedded SVG fonts can optionally be replaced with graphics paths so that applications that do not support SVG fonts are enabled to render the graphics properly. Besides many other features, dvisvgm also supports color, emTeX, tpic, papersize, PDF mapfile and PostScript specials. Users will need a working TeX installation including the kpathsea library.
