ComboStrap - Svg Optimization

About

Svg Optimization is the reduction of the svg file size by deleting unneeded information without losing any quality.

Rules

We are following a subset of the SvgO optimization rules.

The implemented rules are:

• Remove comments
• Remove metadata
• clean ID's
• Remove empty elements
• Remove editors and empty namespace
• Remove title
• Remove desc
• Remove Style element and class attributes (You may disable it with the preserve attribute)
• Remove Script element (no script injection)
• Remove Attribute with default value (for instance version="1.1" or preserveAspectRatio="xMidYMid meet"
• Remove width and height if they have the same value than the viewBox
• Remove XML header such as

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>

• Remove doctype such as:

<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.1//EN" "http://www.w3.org/Graphics/SVG/1.1/DTD/svg11.dtd">

You can disable and/or tune the optimizations with the help of the svg optimization configurations.

By default, we delete the following elements:
