How to save an SVG image file from a website

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG for short) is the World Wide Web Consortium's (W3C) recommended specification for describing two-dimensional vector graphics. SVG, which is based on XML, was first published in September 2001. Virtually all major web browsers can display most of its features.

A key advantage of the SVG format over other graphic formats such as JPG, PNG or TIFF is – especially in responsive web design – its scalability without loss of quality.

But unlike other image formats such as JPG, PNG, or similar, you can't simply right-click and select "Save image as". (Except for Safari on Apple devices).

This tool provides a solution:

Simply drag the green SVG Crowbar 2 "button" into the toolbar and go to the website where you want to save the file. Then click on the bookmark and you can select which SVG file to save.
