gtk-encode-symbolic-svg - Symbolic icon conversion utility

# [SYNOPSIS](#SYNOPSIS)

**gtk-encode-symbolic-svg**  
\[OPTION...]  
*PATH*  
*WIDTH*x*HEIGHT*

# [DESCRIPTION](#DESCRIPTION)

**gtk-encode-symbolic-svg** converts symbolic svg icons into specially prepared png files. GTK+ can load and recolor these pngs, just like original svgs, but loading them is much faster.

*PATH* is the name of a symbolic svg file, *WIDTH*x*HEIGHT* are the desired dimensions for the generated png file.

To distinguish them from ordinary pngs, the generated files have the extension .symbolic.png.

# [OPTIONS](#OPTIONS)

.PP -o *DIRECTORY*, --output *DIRECTORY*

Write png files to *DIRECTORY* instead of the current working directory.
