Rendering SVG images
.NET framework doesn't support SVG format so HTML Renderer cannot natively load and render it.
To overcome this limitation a third-party library can be used to convert SVG formatted image to PNG formatted image that can be rendered by .NET.
It can be done using "ImageLoad" delegate/event that allows to intercept image loading and overwrite SVG image loading with converted PNG image.
Generate image from HTML containing SVG image
Using SVG open-source project added using NuGet package.
Rendering this SVG image.
string html = "<body><h3>Rendered <b>SVG</b> image</h3><hr/><img src='d:\\svg.svg'/></body>";
CssData css = CssData.Parse("body { font:14pt Tahoma } h3 { color: navy; font-weight:normal; }");
Image generatedImage = HtmlRender.RenderToImage(html, cssData: css, imageLoad: (sender, args) =>
{
var path = Path.GetExtension(args.Src);
if( path != null && path.Equals(".svg", StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase) )
{
SvgDocument svgDoc = SvgDocument.Open(args.Src);
Bitmap svgImg = new Bitmap((int)svgDoc.Width, (int)svgDoc.Height, PixelFormat.Format32bppArgb);
svgDoc.Draw(svgImg);
args.Callback(svgImg);
}
});
generatedImage.Save(@"d:\html.png", ImageFormat.Png);
