What is a .svg file?
SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) is an XML-based vector image format describing shapes, paths, text, and styling that scale losslessly to any resolution. It can embed CSS, scripting, and references, so it is both an image and an executable document. It is standard for icons, diagrams, and resolution-independent web graphics.
How to use this file
Use an example SVG to test vector rasterization, sanitization of untrusted markup, and rendering fidelity, treating any untrusted SVG as potentially executable content requiring safe handling.
How to use this file for testing
“SVG icon sprite (symbol sheet)” is a deterministic Novus Examples fixture for Web assets, Conversion testing. Favicons, web app manifests, service workers, robots and sitemap files, Open Graph images, and .well-known resources — for testing web tooling, crawlers, PWA installers, and asset pipelines.
Documented properties for this file: SVG <symbol> sprite. Compare results against paired or grouped companions on this page when present (clean↔damaged, searchable↔scanned, or format twins) so scores stay reproducible across runs.
Download the file once, keep the path stable in CI or local scripts, and treat the spec table as the contract: dimensions, seeds, field lists, and roles are intentional. Corrupt or invalid samples are labelled as such — expect parsers to fail loudly rather than silently accept them.
Web-platform fixtures are standards-compliant samples against fictional example.com data. Test crawlers, PWA installers and manifest validators, favicon/icon pipelines, service-worker registration, or .well-known parsers against the documented structure.

- atomFeed twin - Atom 1.0The same four articles as Atom 1.0: tag: ids identical to the RSS twin, RFC 3339 published and updated timestamps, escaped HTML content, and both alternate and self links. For diffing an RSS-to-Atom converter against a known answer.
- jsonFeed twin - JSON Feed 1.1The third twin: the same four articles as JSON Feed 1.1, using the 1.1 `authors` array rather than the 1.0 singular form, with ids, URLs, summaries, HTML bodies and timestamps identical to the RSS and Atom files. The reference output for an XML-to-JSON feed converter.
- rssFeed twin - RSS 2.0Four articles of a fictional publication as RSS 2.0, with a self-referential atom:link, non-permalink tag: GUIDs, RFC 822 dates and full HTML bodies in content:encoded. One of three twins carrying identical content, so a feed converter can be diffed against a known answer.
- otfOTF — CFF (Cubic) OutlinesThe same design in CFF outlines: cubic Type 2 charstrings with no glyf and no loca. The half of the pair that catches code assuming every OpenType font is TrueType-flavoured. Original typeface, free to use.
