AFAIK the serialization is implemented through Batik and Batik doesn't support SVG to GIF conversion here's a link from their mail archives (if you search them you will see many such discussions):

I use svg2png and for IE I use a hack based on this approach to get transparency:

HTH, Steve
I am looking for a serializer which lets me use transparency. After I found out that png seems to support transparency, I gave the svg2png serializer a try. When using Firebird/Firefox everything looks perfect. In the Internet-Explorer the transparent parts are white. As I don't seem to be able to use transparency in the Internet-Explorer, I would have to use another format which supports transparency.
