The rust resvg [1] project uses micro SVG (usvg) [2] as an interim normalization format that simplifies SVG into solely: * Simplified paths (no shapes, only one kind of object) * DTDs, Attributes, CSS and references are pre-resolved * Invisible elements and comments are removed Resolving shared items may cause sizes to increase drastically however. This is the sort of explosion that compression is perfect at compressing. 1: https://docs.rs/resvg/latest/resvg/ https://docs.rs/resvg/latest/resvg/ 2: https://docs.rs/usvg/latest/usvg/ https://docs.rs/usvg/latest/usvg/
