I'm very happy to see that GenoPro uses SVG as the format for family trees in reports.

As I understand, right now the only way to export to SVG is to generate a report and get the file from there. I think it should be possible to just export your family tree to SVG the same way it is exported to EMF using File/Export/Export to MetaFile... It looks like the backbone of SVG support is already there, so it should not be that hard to do, right?

As I understand, SVG is a much better format than EMF, and it is rapidly growing in support, so it would be nice to easily export to SVG in a few clicks. I want to put a link to the SVG on a website I'm building, so that people can download it, resize it to their liking, and print it.

Also, the SVGs I open through "reports" look somewhat worse that what you would get with EMF export: the horizontal grey lines (marriage lines) are arranged on top of the black vertical lines, and they look a little funky--you'll see what I mean when you look at them. Hopefully that can be corrected as a part of this update.

Of course, this is not top priority. I can export to EMF for now, and convert that over to SVG. But I think this is a good medium-term goal.
