Exporting a shape from an .ai file to SVG can cause curves to change

[aibtcare]

So I received a source file for a logo in .ai file format. When exporting to an SVG, I noticed some of the shapes would lose their continuous curve, and would have a random bump added to them.

This is what the curve looked like before exporting the .ai file:

 

And here is what it looks like after the export to SVG:

After playing around with some of the export settings for a while, it seems selecting "Flatten transforms" under the more option on the export screen seems to solve the problem and export the correct shapes. Not sure if this is intended behavior or not but thought I would post it here!

Hi aibtcare,
Welcome to Affinity Forums
Do you mind attaching the Ai file for us to check please? I can provide an upload link if you wish to keep the file private. Thanks.

[aibtcare]

Yup, I can send it over but I'd like to keep it private if possible.

Here's the upload link. Thanks for your support.

Hi aibtcare,

Thank you for uploading the file. I've reproduced the issue and will get it logged with development.
