Hi, is it possible to concatenate 2 .svg's and generate a new one as output ?! something like this:

convert \( 1.svg 2.svg +append \) -render -append final.svg

it works when I create a png as output but not with svgs :(

tnx

SVG's are vector images. IM can't generate them, at least not directly. If the 'autotrace' library is installed it will use that con to vert raster images to vector images, but that is not very 'nice' and a specialized usage.

See A Word about Vector Images
http://www.imagemagick.org/Usage/formats/#vector

In short... To properly concatenate SVG image to produce SVG images, you need a SVG image handler! Not ImageMagick
