I'm struggling with a problem very similar to this. I don't have iBooksAuthor, but would it be possible to upload an example ePub where you have used the widget, whatever that is, so I can have a look at the code produced by it?

Bre., sorry for reviwing an old thread, but I find it defensable since it's the same problem over again

I had to open the SVG image in a text editor, then copy paste the text into the HTML, and then the SVG image worked in iBooks.

In Adobe Digital Editions everything is fine. The SVG-graphics are visible and scalable.
But on the IPad the graphics are not visible (only a lot of white space).
We don't have an IPad so I'M not sure with what our customer has opened the epub?!

Does someone has an idea/solution?

Thanks

This is not about the iPad. It's about iBooks. You can use iBooks on an iPhone.

I opened svg files with a text editor and changed 'width' and 'height' variables in svg tag on the top. It's done.

I'm having a similar issue, but strangely enough, SVG images do not show in regular iBooks "Book Mode", switching over to "Scroll Mode", they show up just fine!
