SVG at a glance

SVG

SVG grew inside the web standards ecosystem rather than the print-first page-description world, which shaped its XML-based, browser-oriented identity.

NCX at a glance

NCX

NCX was defined in the 2005 DAISY and ANSI-NISO talking-book standard, then carried forward into EPUB 2 and later treated as a legacy compatibility feature once EPUB 3 introduced XHTML navigation documents.
