Valerie is correct. We no longer use SWML. For each sign, rather
than XML markup we are using word strings in ASCII, called Formal
SignWriting (FSW).<br>
<br>
Consider this sign.<br>

Formal SignWriting: M518x529S14c20481x471S27106503x489<br>
<br>
Equivalent SWML:<br>

<br>
You can find the details of Formal SignWriting in
draft-slevinski-signwriting-text.<br>
<br>
Each dictionary in SignPuddle Online is available as an XML file.
Here is the source file for Saudi Arabia:<br>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/data/spml/sgn40.spml">http://www.signbank.org/signpuddle2.0/data/spml/sgn40.spml</a><br>
<br>
This XML files cross references the Arabic text with the written
sign language.<br>
<br>
<blockquote type="cite">
<pre>3-how SVG use swml file for producing gif format ?</pre>
</blockquote>
Rather than SWML, we use Formal SignWriting.<br>
<br>
Rather than GIF, we use PNG or SVG.<br>
<br>
Using the "SignWriting Icon Server" (SWIS), you can create the SVG
or PNG from the Formal SignWriting. You can use the public SWIS on
Wikimedia Labs or you can install your own with the source from
Github.<br>
<br>
For the SVG, use a link like this:<br>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://swis.wmflabs.org/glyphogram.php?font=svg&text=M518x529S14c20481x471S27106503x489">http://swis.wmflabs.org/glyphogram.php?font=svg&text=M518x529S14c20481x471S27106503x489</a><br>
<br>
For the PNG, use a link like this:<br>
<a rel="nofollow" target="_blank" href="http://swis.wmflabs.org/glyphogram.php?font=png&text=M518x529S14c20481x471S27106503x489">http://swis.wmflabs.org/glyphogram.php?font=png&text=M518x529S14c20481x471S27106503x489</a><br>
<br>
For the relational database, there is no reason to divide the Formal
SignWriting. Put the Arabic text in one field "
<b style="font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><font size="+1">الغة الاشرة</font></b><span style="font-family: Times; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><font size="+1">"</font></span><span style="font-family: Times; font-size: medium; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px;"><font size="+1"> and put</font></span>
the Formal SignWriting in another field "
<span style="font-family: Times; font-size: 16px; font-style: normal; font-variant: normal; font-weight: normal; letter-spacing: normal; line-height: normal; text-indent: 0px; text-transform: none; white-space: normal; word-spacing: 0px; display: inline; float: none;">M528x546S14c18472x463S14c10503x454S2ea18481x511S2ea08513x501S2fd00494x540</span>".<br>
