Precision Graphics Markup Language ( PGML ) is an XML -based language for representing vector graphics . It was a World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) submission by Adobe Systems , IBM , Netscape , and Sun Microsystems , that was not adopted as a recommendation . PGML is a 2D graphical format, offering precision for graphic artists , guaranteeing that the design created will appear in end user systems with the correct formatting, layout and the precision of color.

PGML and Vector Markup Language , another XML-based vector graphics language W3C submission supported by Autodesk , Hewlett-Packard , Macromedia , Microsoft , and Visio Corporation , were later joined and improved upon to create Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG).

Applications [ edit ]

The ArgoUML CASE tool is able to export UML diagrams in PGML.
