The latest release of RDKit (2015-03) can generate SVG images with several lines of codes but by default the generated SVG image has a white background. The investigations on sources didn’t solve my problem as I couldn’t find any option for setting background to transparent background.
An example of SVG image generation can be found on RDKit blog post called New Drawing Code.
In [3] shows the SVG image generation and it returns the SVG file content in XML.
