title: Can PIL be used to get dimensions of an svg file?
body: <p>I have svg files which I would like to compare based on their dimensions. </p>
  
  <p>I read about PIL as the best image tool in python. Does PIL handle svg files? I can't seem to find this anywhere.</p>
  
  <p>When googling I saw people interpreting svg files as text which seems counterintuitive. </p>
  
  <p>What if not PIL is be the best way to get the x &amp; y dimensions of a .svg file? </p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
