When the text is too small, I used the Windows magnifier to read them.
If you know how to use a text editor, you can increase the text font from '8' to '12' and then display the SVG with larger text in the boxes.
While in the text view, you can also note down the colour code used for the boxes. Green for pump, Red for heating, etc.

You can also view svg files with the opera web browser.On Fri, Jul 1, 2011 at 1:03 PM, Linda Lawrie <linda@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote:
You can open SVG files in Firefox (maybe in IE as well) but can't really zoom in.
Another one that may be more effective is: free SVG viewer/editor. www.inkscape.org

Hello Everybody,
I currently use Windows 7, and Adobe has discontinued support for the SVG viewer and the plugin does not work for Windows 7 (as far as I can tell) which means that I cannot figure out a way to view an HVAC diagram after I model it in EnergyPlus. Does anybody have a good alternative or suggestion for how to get the SVG viewer to work?
Thank you,
Matthew Sverre Anderson
