Convert AI to SVG

A logo needs to go on a website as a crisp, scalable asset, and the only master file is an Illustrator document.

    What actually changes

    AI and SVG are not the same picture in two wrappers.

    Paths, fills and strokes are translated into SVG elements. The result stays vector, scales infinitely and can be styled with CSS, which is the main reason to do this rather than exporting a PNG.

    Worth knowing first

    Illustrator effects that have no SVG equivalent, such as certain gradient meshes, blend modes and live blends, get rasterised into embedded images inside the SVG. That silently destroys the scalability you converted for, and it inflates the file.

    Questions

    AI to SVG, answered

    Will the text stay editable?

    If it was live text, it becomes SVG text and depends on the font being available. Converting type to outlines before exporting makes it render identically everywhere.

    My SVG is enormous. Why?

    Usually an embedded raster or thousands of nodes from a trace. Check for base64 image data inside the file before blaming the exporter.
