What are the ways to represent XML graphics?
Is SVG the most practical way?
Is there a way that doesn't need a conversion process, as SVG does?
What about just jpg, gif, bmp?

I have the original graphics in PowerPoint. What are the ways to go from
this format to XML?

Thanks

You can store bitmap graphics (bmp, jpg, gif, etc.) in an XML document as
binary data. Binary data is usually stored in XML using Base 64 encoding.
AFAIK there's no system for converting bitmap graphics themselves into
independent XML docs, but that probably wouldn't work out so well anyway.
Depending on what version of PowerPoint you're using you should be able to
save the PowerPoint in XML format, which will include the graphics. What
exactly are you trying to do, and why the post to SQL Server XML? Just
trying to cover all the "*.xml" groups?
