GoDiagram provides support for Extensible Meta-Language (XML) and Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) documents through the Northwoods.Go.Xml and Northwoods.Go.Svg assemblies, respectively.

The Xml assembly allows the developer to both read and write XML documents corresponding to particular GoDiagrams. The format of these XML documents (the document type definition or schema) is entirely controlled by the developer.

The Svg assembly is a specific use of the Xml assembly that specifies how to generate SVG from a GoView. Note that reading SVG documents into GoDiagram is not supported.

See the section in the User Guide for more detail.
