What happens if you export to PDF - is the line visible in the PDF? -

SVG Export resolution AD
MattP replied to DarkClown's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
As Alfred points out, this does imply that the original document is at 300dpi. Try working from a 72dpi document - I'm assuming it will then export as intended? -
SVG Export resolution AD
MattP replied to DarkClown's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Definitely true - but this is placing a 72dpi SVG into a 300dpi document. I'm happy with this behaviour as it is correct (edit: at least, arguably, lol!) - but if you open the SVG you'll see it create a 72dpi document at the anticipated 100x100 pixel size -

MattP replied to DarkClown's topic in Desktop Questions (macOS and Windows)
Could you share a sample file that illustrates the problem? I just created a new document, pixel units, 100x100 pixels in size, added a curve and exported to SVG. I can open that SVG and everything is the correct size, as expected (attached for your reference) Thanks, Matt sample100px.afdesign sample100px.svg -

Wonderful work - as always, Marc! Always super-impressed by your creations

This looks like an issue with SVG output of strokes which have a pressure profile applied to them? (at a guess) Is it possible for you to select the curves which output incorrectly and choose 'Layer'->'Expand Stroke' from the menu and see if it works properly afterwards? In my tests, it should be working? I know that's not an ideal solution, but it might be enough to get you sorted for now? Failing that, if you can attach a part of your design as an .afdesign file here, someone should be able to help. Thanks! Matt

Everything is going to the screen with screen profiles applied, taking into account the document format and colour profiles. You should find you get the same colour results with the same setups in all other colour-managed applications. I'm fairly certain it's all acting correctly (or at least, it certainly used to and I can't imagine why it has changed, lol!) It's not an incredibly complicated area, but it's lengthy to explain - take a browse through some 'colour management for screen' google searches
-
...and the answer to your questions, is almost certainly: Colour Profiles!
