Bane Posted November 18, 2021 Posted November 18, 2021 Recently i was asked if I could trace an organizations logo in doing so I noticed that the the width of the lines is inaccurate as is the size of the text I'm using version 1.10.4.1198 Affinity shows the width of the line as 2.0 pt and the text as 8 pt (its quite evident both are bigger) in the .afdesign file, but when I export it to .svg the values change to 8.3 pt and 33.33 pt respectively (also the text gets broken up even tho its not converted to curves a single word get split into two or more texboxes). The plot only thickens when i open the svg file with illustrator to find out that the text size is 113,88 pt and the stroke is 28,4584 pt quite a bit off from the original 8 pt and 2 pt. Quote
Bane Posted November 18, 2021 Author Posted November 18, 2021 (edited) Also I forgot to mention that whilst trying to align the different elements in the logo even tho align to first selected is selected always the first selected element would align to the second one for no apparent reason Edited November 18, 2021 by Bane Quote
Staff stokerg Posted November 19, 2021 Staff Posted November 19, 2021 Hi @Bane, What's the DPI of your Designer file? You can check this via File>Document Setup. Ideally you want it to be 72 and the export to SVG should be the same size as you designed in Designer. 20 hours ago, Bane said: Also I forgot to mention that whilst trying to align the different elements in the logo even tho align to first selected is selected always the first selected element would align to the second one for no apparent reason If you can provide the afdesign file, i'll be happy to look into this for you Quote
Bane Posted November 20, 2021 Author Posted November 20, 2021 The DPI is 72 (default) i would attach both the svg and affinity file the but the logo is not mine(belongs to a diabetics association) and I don't know if they would mind me sharing it but I will get in contact with them and try to get their permission and post it. I think its quite apparent from the attached photos that the stroke/width of the circle is not even close to 2 pt. Quote
