What is a SVG file?

Created by Adobe Systems, the SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) files refer to an open standard created under the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). It stores images that are in a two-dimensional vector graphic format. Adobe Creative suite creates and exports these files using an XML-based text format.
An SVG format supports hyperlinks, vector shapes, raster objects, and manipulations, and combinations of objects. These files are susceptible to compression and use the gzip technique to achieve it. An SVG file provides resolution-independent, HiDPI (High-Resolution Dots Per Inch) in a compact form irrespective of the device the user uses to view it.
