For PNG images, we recommend to use versions 1.4.x and later of

precompiled libraries and headers on the GTK download page for

This site includes a minimal (as much as possible for librsvg)
build of the library and its dependencies; it is also more
up-to-date with the latest upstream versions. However, it
currently only offers 32-bit builds. For building Emacs, you
need to download from this site all of the following *-bin.zip

librsvg, gdk-pixbuf, cairo, glib
The 'bin' archives on this site include both header files and the
libraries needed for building with librsvg and for running Emacs.
The librsvg archive includes all the shared libraries needed to
run Emacs with SVG support; the other 3 packages are required
because the compiler needs to see their header files when
building Emacs.
2. GTK project download site for Windows (see above for 2 URLs,
either for 32-bit builds or 64-bit builds)
This is the official Windows download site of the GTK project.
Its builds of librsvg are fatter, but are currently the only
alternative for 64-bit builds. The easiest way to obtain the
dependencies required for building from this site is to download
a pre-bundled GTK+ development environment for Windows. If you
would nevertheless like to download only the packages that are
strictly required, then, as of the time of this writing, here's
the list of GTK+ packages you will need:
librsvg, pango, freetype-2.4.11, freetype-2.4.2, croco, cairo,
glib, gdk-pixbuf, fontconfig, libpng-1.4.x, libpng-1.5.x,
libffi, libxml2, zlib
The GTK download page provides 2 separate archives for each
package: a 'bin' (binary) archive with programs and DLLs, and a
'dev' (development) archive with header files, import libraries,
and pkg-config files; download and install both archives for each
package you need. (Sources of each package are available in a
separate, 3rd archive.)
As you see, some libraries for using this site's librsvg are
needed in more than one version -- this is because librsvg and
some of its dependencies were linked against different versions
of those libraries, and will look only for those DLLs when you
invoke SVG function. So there's a bit of "DLL hell" involved
here, but at least in theory this should work, as each library
will dynamically link only against its dependencies, even if
another version of the same library is already loaded. In
particular, at least 2 different versions of libpng will have to
be installed on your machine. When you install these libpng
versions, be sure to keep the header files and the pkg-config
files in sync, i.e. install both the 'bin' and 'dev' archives of
the same libpng version together.

libraries needed for building with librsvg and for running Emacs.
The librsvg archive includes all the shared libraries needed to

To use librsvg at runtime, ensure that librsvg and its dependencies
are on your PATH, or in the same directory as the emacs.exe binary.
If you are downloading from the ezwinports site, you only need to
install a single archive, librsvg-X.Y.Z-w32-bin.zip, which includes
all the dependency DLLs. For the GTK project site, download the
'bin' archives for each of the libraries mentioned above.
all the dependency DLLs.
If you think you've got all the dependencies and SVG support is
still not working, check your PATH for other libraries that shadow
