Converting SVG's to Raster formats like JPG's or Gifs

Adam, First of all great work...

Absof#ckinbrilliant... Said it before, and said it again

A complementary program for Unix, Windows and Linux, which is also freeware GPL, that I can recommend, is ImageMagick, which is a commandline utilty to convert among others SVG files to whatever format you like..

It has a wide API, including support for PHP, Perl, C, C#, Python and many more, so it could be incorporated on a website to convert the resulting GPSVisualizer SVG/gif combo to a plain gif, or JPG, or even PDF. You might take a look at it, and consider incorporating it on gpsvisualizer.

Others can use it at home like I do, to convert the maps to a rasterformat for inclusion on a html page etc...

Just my 0.02€'s worth.
