TEX at a glance
TEX
Convert to TEX when the destination workflow expects source for LaTeX or TeX-based publishing rather than a finished office document.
It is the right target for papers, theses, technical manuals, books, and any content that will be typeset with strong control over equations, references, and print layout.
Use TEX when structured source and compile-time publishing matter more than immediate WYSIWYG editing.
SVGZ at a glance
SVGZ
Convert to SVGZ when you need SVG semantics but want the file itself stored or transmitted in compressed form.
It is most useful for web asset pipelines, map layers, and technical graphics repositories where vector fidelity matters and pre-compressed files are already part of the deployment model.
If the downstream environment already applies gzip or brotli to ordinary SVG responses, plain SVG is often easier to work with.
Choose SVGZ when the consumer explicitly expects it or when archived asset size is worth prioritizing.

Why convert TEX to SVGZ?

What changes when converting TEX to SVGZ?
This conversion changes how the format behaves in downstream tools and delivery environments.
Size profile changes from medium in TEX to small in SVGZ. Quality profile changes from depends in TEX to scalable in SVGZ. Editability profile changes from moderate in TEX to high in SVGZ. Compatibility profile changes from broad in TEX to moderate in SVGZ. Archival profile changes from strong in TEX to good in SVGZ. Workflow profile changes from exchange in TEX to design in SVGZ.
Moving to SVGZ adds vector scaling.
What should I review after converting TEX to SVGZ?
Check the exported file for Not human-readable without decompression.; Requires correct HTTP headers for web delivery.; Cannot be edited directly — must decompress first..
