Problem when integrating an SVG image

[Leopold194]

I am trying to embed a .svg image in my pdf using the line:
pdf.image(f"{pathlib.Path(__file__).parent}/../../assets/pictures/Ban_Historique_Maladie_Aveclogo.svg")

But I get the following error that I can't find on the Internet.
raise ValueError(f"unsupported color specification {colorstr}") ValueError: unsupported color specification url(#paint0_linear_137_38)

I put the image in attachment

Hi @Leopold194!

If you open this file with a text editor, you will see thi one the line 14:

fill="url(#paint0_linear_137_38)

This is a reference to the def on line 3:

<linearGradient id="paint0_linear_137_38" x1="0" y1="46.63" x2="595.28" y2="46.63" gradientUnits="userSpaceOnUse">

url() as fill values are part of the SVG feature that fpdf2 currently does not support:

• https://pyfpdf.github.io/fpdf2/SVG.html#currently-unsupported-notable-svg-features
• issue Implement one of the unsupported SVG features: <text>, <image>... #537

Currently, the best I can suggest is either:

• replace url(#paint0_linear_137_38) by #56B35D in your SVG source image, and fpdf2 will be able to insert it, but you will loose the gradient effect.
• contribute to fpdf2 and add support for this feature! 😊
