Command-line application for converting SVG to PNG on Mac OS X

Question

Are there any command-line programs that can convert an SVG to PNG, that run on Mac OS X?

Edit: Dylan B had a good answer with ImageMagick. For reference, to install ImageMagick with SVG support on Mac OS X using MacPorts, do

port install imagemagick +rsvg

Answer 1

Or without installing anything:

qlmanage -t -s 1000 -o . picture.svg 

It will produce picture.svg.png that is 1000 pixels wide.

I have tested it only on OS X 10.6.3.

Answer 2

ImageMagick is an extremely versatile command-line image editor, which would probably rival Photoshop if it had, you know, a GUI. But who needs those anyways. :P

Something like the following would convert a .svg to .png, after installation:

$ convert picture.svg picture.png

The original .svg isn't deleted.

Answer 3

If you want to do many at once, you can:

mogrify -format png *.svg

There are options to resize etc on the fly, too..

Answer 4

As commented previously ImageMagick does the trick. I just wanted to add a point for GraphicsMagick, an old fork of ImageMagick that has some improvements (and much less dependency bloat when installed via fink).

Answer 5

I use this command on my linux. It should work for you as well.

mogrify +antialias -density 2000 -verbose -format png *.svg

I learned that without the "-density" argument, the bitmap would be very pixelized. Change the -density value to match your need.
