            <p>We have received many suggestions to add SVG as output from the library to achieve
                better quality in off-screen reproduction of graphs. Adding SVG output would
                significantly enhance the print quality as well as adding the possibility of
                seamless zooming in graphs. For this reason we have done a brief pre-study on the
                feasibility of such a backend. This short note will describe our findings. </p>
