TikZ picture incorrectly translated

[nschloe]

I have a fairly complex TikZ plot that I'd like to convert to an SVG using dvisvgm.

Compiled with tectonic,

tectonic t.tex

I'm getting this PDF:

When using the XDV route,

tectonic t.tex --outfmt xdv
dvisvgm t.xdv --no-fonts -o t.svg

the output SVG looks like

Any idea what might be going wrong?

[mgieseki]

That's because TikZ creates PDF specials by default when used with XeLaTeX. dvisvgm doesn't support these. You can either use LaTeX instead or add \def\pgfsysdriver{pgfsys-dvips.def} before \usepackage{tikz}.

[muzimuzhi]

tikz/pgf has a specific dvisvgm driver, so \def\pgfsysdriver{pgfsys-dvisvgm.def} should also work and supports tikz svg animations additionally (compared to dvips driver).
