Hi Michal,
I thought of implementing classes for each format with some methods for
rendering the primitives (line, text, box, etc) and subclasses for each
format to implement these methods.
I also think that 'creating a file with known format and converting that to
EPS' would cause more trouble.
We can use the PostScript Document Creation Module of PHP to create
postscript files.
And from the external libraries which i have mentioned, i thought of using
the DOM extension of PHP for the creation of SVG files.
Since SVG is a XML format it will be easy to operate on it with DOM
extension.

>From what i have learnt by going through the source is that exporting
files(eg - PDF) are done on-the-fly without requiring external extensions.
Are you suggesting me to do like that for these formats?

Regards,
