Vector Graphics

[Stochastic]

So I'd like to use vector graphics to get some crisp fonts onto a webpage I'm creating, but IE is lame. I've made an SVG of the text, but IE still doesn't support this format (everyone else does, and it's been a web standard since 2001).

But IE does support VML (Vector Markup Language) and I've heard that Google maps uses that format if a poor soul happens to be viewing their page with a IE browser (SVG is used otherwise).

My question is: how can I change my SVG into a VML graphic using Ubuntu?

Using the actual vector graphics files for web pages doesn't really work too well yet. I recommend converting your final images into PNG files, which work very well on all modern browsers, and, because of the lossless compression PNG uses, maintains the crisp look of vector graphics and fonts.

File size is a very important issue with this particular website (i.e. low data bandwidth). I'd be willing to sacrifice the crispness of vector images for a lower bandwidth, but I was under the impression that vector images were fairly small in size when compared to their rastered counterparts (provided the image isn't too complex).

Is there no way to create a VML image in Ubuntu?
