Why does my animated SVG come out static?

Animation that depends on JavaScript inside the SVG is stripped for security. SMIL (<animate>, <animateTransform>) and SVG-internal CSS animation should work.

Why is my SVG missing fonts?

SVG referencing external fonts can't load them in a sandboxed image. Embed the font as data URI in the SVG, or convert text to paths first.
