# define and map media types to their appropriate encoding type
# Using SVG format (Scalable Vector Graphics) is highly recommended to
# load logos, icons, text, and simple images. You can compress .SVG files
# further using GZIP to create .SVGZ files. However, most browsers don’t
# know that they need to decompress them first if they’re not served
# without an appropriate ‘content-encoding’ HTTP response header. Thus,
# these images wouldn’t show up in the browser. Hence, this module.
<IfModule mod_mime.c>
AddType image/svg+xml svg svgz
AddEncoding gzip svgz
</IfModule>
</IfModule>
You should add these code snippets (one or the other) after the existing directives of your .htaccess file. Save the file and then check whether it enables GZIP compression on your server. See example below:
