CTAN Update: dvisvgm
dvisvgm is a command-line utility that converts DVI files to SVG. The recent release 1.4 is a feature release with the following additions: - Basic support for CMap files and CID-based fonts has been added. This enables the processing of DVI files created with pTeX, for example. - Support for OpenType (OTF) fonts has been added. - Evaluation of bounding box information generated by the preview package has been added. - The command-line option --linkmark has been extended to mark hyperlinked areas with an arbitrary background color. - The processing of PostScript header specials has been improved. - PostScript operator show creates much better results now. - The DOCTYPE declaration has been removed from the generated SVG files. - The encoding of the generated SVG files has been changed to UTF-8.

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.
