 							This use case describes the automatic generation of a vector graphic representation for a UML class diagram.
 							This UML diagram has its presentation information according to the UML Diagram Interchange standard.

 							UML Diagram Interchange enables a smooth and seamless exchange of documents compliant to the UML standard (referred to as UML models) between different software tools.
 							While this certainly includes tools for developing UML models, it also includes tools such as whiteboard tools, code generators, word processing tools, and desktop
 							publishing tools. Special attention is given to the Internet as a medium for exchanging and presenting UML models.

 							From this diagram interchange data we generate another presentation using the W3C
 							standard SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics), an XML-based format. The SVG file may be exported towards another graphical format, or viewed as is.
 							Moreover, the SVG code in the created file shall be readable by a humanbeing, as opposed to the
 							exported XMI file from Poseidon. For instance that generates SVG files that are based on non abstract geometrical
 							forms (such as rectangle, line, circle, polygon, etc). This scenario shall create
 							logical structures using as many as possible abstract geometrical forms.
