## Syntax Examples

### Grid List
```infographic
infographic list-grid
data
  title Project Overview
  items
    - label Module A
      desc Description of module A
    - label Module B
      desc Description of module B
```

### Binary Comparison
```infographic
infographic compare-binary
data
  title Pros vs Cons
  items
    - label Pros
      children
        - label Strong R&D
          desc Technology leadership
    - label Cons
      children
        - label Weak brand
          desc Insufficient marketing
```

### Bar Chart
```infographic
infographic chart-bar
data
  title Quarterly Revenue
  items
    - label Q1
      value 120
    - label Q2
      value 150
```

## Technical Details

### Data URL Embedding
```javascript
// SVG to Base64 Data URL
const svgData = new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(svg);
const base64 = btoa(unescape(encodeURIComponent(svgData)));
const dataUri = "data:image/svg+xml;base64," + base64;

// Markdown image syntax
const markdownImage = `![description](${dataUri})`;
```

### AntV toDataURL API
```javascript
// Export as SVG (recommended, supports embedded resources)
const svgUrl = await instance.toDataURL({
    type: 'svg',
    embedResources: true
});

// Export as PNG (more compatible but larger)
const pngUrl = await instance.toDataURL({
    type: 'png',
    dpr: 2
});
```

## Notes

1. **Browser Compatibility**: Requires modern browsers with ES6+ and Fetch API support
2. **Network Dependency**: First use requires loading AntV library from CDN
3. **Data URL Size**: Base64 encoding increases size by ~33%
4. **Chinese Fonts**: SVG export embeds fonts for correct display
