Specifications

What every SVGZO file is.

A buyer's checklist, answered per dataset. The same rules are enforced by the ingest pipeline that builds previews and sample packs, and every claim below is measured from the files, not asserted.

Format

  • SVG 1.1, UTF-8, one document per file, with width, height and viewBox declared.
  • Self-contained: no external references, no scripts, no foreignObject. Fonts are embedded or referenced by name; embedded fonts carry their authors' notices in NOTICES/.
  • Renders deterministically. Previews on this site are produced with resvg from the shipped files.
  • Every file has a SHA-256 checksum, a stable asset id and a metadata row.

DOM nodes

Files are real SVG documents whose Document Object Model nodes determine how the image renders. A model trained on them sees structure, not pixels.

DOM node types
NodeWhat it carriesPresence
<text>Actual editable text strings: headlines, labels, figures, captions, schedules. Never outlined to paths. Font family, weight and size are declared on the node.Present in every file of every dataset
<path>Vector layouts and geometry: chart marks, illustration, walls, openings, furniture, decorative shapes. Bézier and line commands with explicit coordinates.Present in every file of every dataset
<image>Embedded high-resolution raster images, where a design includes a photographic or bitmap element. Recorded per file as image_count so buyers can filter for vector-only subsets.Absent from most lines; see the table below
<g>Groups that carry layout structure: sections, chart slots, architectural layers (A-WALL, A-DOOR, A-GLAZ, A-FURN, A-ANNO).Present in every file

Interleaved text and graphics

Text and graphics in every file are made in the context of one another. A headline states what the chart beneath it shows; a legend names the series drawn beside it; a room label sits inside the room it measures; a poster's copy describes the illustration it accompanies. The text is not a caption bolted on after the fact, and the graphics are not decoration unrelated to the words. This is what makes the files usable for text-to-SVG, chart understanding and layout models without a separate annotation pass.

Content rules

  • No brands or trademarks. Organisation names, product names and logos are invented placeholders. No real company, brand mark or trademarked character appears.
  • No personally identifiable information. No real person is named, depicted or described. Contact lines on print templates use placeholder patterns such as +00 000 000 0000 and www.yourshop.com. Floor plans describe no real property or address.
  • Placeholder figures. Every statistic, price and measurement is written for the layout. The data teaches structure, not facts.
  • No third-party content. Assets are composed, created and processed into SVG from source files by The Doodle Desk's team and network of creators.

Image-node counts for the full lines are published on each dataset page. Buyers who need vector-only data can filter on image_count = 0 in the metadata.

Verification you can run

Every sample pack ships metadata with text_count, path_count and image_count per file, SHA256SUMS, and the pre-flight report that excluded any file with raster, script or external references. The same numbers can be reproduced with any XML parser.
