A .sif file is the XML representation of a canvas. It holds the canvas's metadata, such as width and height, as well as information about its layers. Typically, a Synfig production comprises many .sif files joined in a sequence or nested within each other.
The .sif format is formidably complex and evolving. It is implementation-defined rather than spec-defined. Therefore, you should take everything on this page with a grain of salt. Indeed, the implementation can change at any point.
There are no known plans to freeze the format.
Source code
The .sif format is implemented by the following file:
https://github.com/synfig/synfig/blob/master/synfig-core/src/synfig/loadcanvas.cpp
The format as of January 2016
The top-level element of a .sif file is always a "<canvas>".
<?xml version="1.0"?>
<canvas version="0.1" width="300" height="350" xres="2952.7559"
yres="2952.7559" view-box="-1.5 2.5 1.5 -1" antialias="2"
fps="12" begin-time="0f" end-time="0f" bgcolor="0.5 0.5 0.5 1">
