sarituulia Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 I'm exporting AD document to PDF. I need to be able to preserve the strokes editable- however, when opened in Illustrator, the strokes have been converted to fills? See attached screenshots The same problen when exporting to SVG- the strokes get converted. EDIT: I found solution to this in case someone else runs into this problem: when the stroke is set to other than 'Center', it will fill the stroke when exporting.

Alfred Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Was it the stroke alignment that was causing the problem?

So centre lined it see's it as a stroke, inner or outer it interprets it as a fill.

firstdefence Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Ive tried every PDF export including Advanced features checked and all interpret an inner and outer stroke as a fill, so it effectively expands the stroke.
