@AryanBagade no one sent a pr for this, so you can work on it

@AryanBagade: I really don't want to spam here, but I can't debug/deploy our project, and people are waiting for my results. Do you think there's any progress in sight for this issue?

@SetTrend, Add a viewBox attribute to the root element of your SVG file.

For example,
<svg xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" width="69.5" height="71.5" viewBox="0 0 69.5 71.5">

This ensures that SkiaSharp can correctly determine the SVG dimensions during the build process.
