Nice, thanks.

Will look into it as well. It would be nice if a "page" (though it contains 
only one system) could be output like the EPS backend does it, i.e. with the 
bounding box set to the rectangle that encompasses all objects in/around the 
system, instead of a full page.

I guess it could be quite simple to implement it, because the only difference 
are the height/width and viewBox attributes in the <svg> root element.

best regards,
Wilbert
