Problem with our logo, only outline imports into Cricut Design Studio

[kitthaas]

I am importing our logo into Cricut Design Space and one portion of the logo comes in as an outline only without the fill.  I can't figure out why.  I'm importing in a .svg format and when I'm in Affinity Designer I see all of the logo with it's outline and fill but when I import it into Cricuit only the outline of the word "kitchen" imports.

Hello and welcome to the forums @kitthaas.

The Example.svg is in fact a PNG (raster, Pixel image).

That's right, it's an in SVG embedded base64 uuencoded PNG image ...

First see and look through all the Cricut related threads here in the forum ...

• General Google forum search after related cricut threads --> "affinity Cricut site:forum.affinity.serif.com"

... which may then already answer some of your logo and SVG export related issues/problems.

Other than that you can also describe your issue here, so asking here people in the forum for help for some concreate described problems. - For hiring coaches, don't know if individual people here are doing such tasks.
