from org:

#+begin_src :file test.svg :commandline -tsvg
 ...
#+end_src

command line:

java -jar plantuml.jar -tsvg -p < sequence.plantuml > sequence.svg

with direct conversion to pdf when using rsvg-convert:

java -jar plantuml.jar -tsvg -p < sequence.plantuml | rsvg-convert -f
pdf > sequence.pdf

Options for rsvg-convert:
 -f , --format=[png, pdf, ps, svg]     save format [optional; defaults
to 'png']

the others are not that relevant.


Thanks,

Rainer
