Designer 2.0 Reverted to NO .svg save-as/export


Recommended Posts

I was so thrilled a couple years ago when Serif was able to respond to customer requests to implement .svg import/export.  The most recent upgrade (2.0) seems to have undone that capability.  One excellent thing I found (not much publicized) is the ability to completely smooth out the jaggies during .dxf import (a well-known competitor attempts, but fails with really bad (thousands of little lines) .dxf files.  I am attaching the .afdesign file created from a tiny .dxf.

I am not sure what you mean about 'undoing' that capability in AD V2. For me SVG import still works just like it did in V1. The interface in V2 for File > Export has changed a bit, but you should be able to select SVG from the popup menu in the Export dialog box, or in the Export persona select SVG from the File Format popup or one of the SVG presets.
