Another unrelated use of SVG is to provide images that can scale large or small without becoming pixelated. This is used for things like charts and equations, rather than photographic images.

I feel like this is still going over my head
Am I understanding correctly that the general advantage of SVG is that it reduces distortion and pixelization?
But SVG makes no difference when it comes to cover images in Kindle books?
Does SVG make a difference for
non-cover images in KF8?
Thank you for any enlightenment you can offer
