Setting optimization options for SVG and SWF files
When you optimize a Smart Illustrator object in SVG or SWF format, GoLive opens Illustrator so you can access
several advanced optimization options. In an SVG file, for example, you can store subsets of fonts and preserve Illus-
trator-specific data. In an SWF file, you can export Illustrator layers to SWF frames, specify the frame rate, and more.
Optimization options for SVG format
TheSVG Optionsdialogbox openswhenyou addaSmartIllustrator object to theLayoutEditorand save theobject
in SVG format. SVG files can contain sophisticated elements created in Illustrator, such as gradients, animation, and
filter effects. (For more information, search for “SVG format” in Illustrator Help.)
DTD Specifies the DTD (Document Type Definition) for the exported file:
• SVG 1.0 and SVG 1.1 Suitable for SVG files that will be viewed on a desktop computer.
• SVG Tiny 1.1 Suitable forSVG filesthatwillbeviewedonsmall devices, such as mobile phones.Doesnot support
gradients, transparency, clipping, masks, symbols, or SVG filter effects.
• SVG Basic 1.1 Suitable for SVG files that will be viewed on medium-powered devices, such as handhelds. Does not
support nonrectangular clipping and some SVG filter effects.
Font Type Specifies how fonts are exported. Choose from the following options:
• Adobe CEF Uses font hinting for better rendering of small fonts. This font type is supported by the Adobe SVG
Viewer but may not be supported by other SVG viewers.
• SVG Does not use font hinting. This font type is supported by all SVG viewers.
• Convert To Outlines Converts type to vector paths. Use this option to preserve the visual appearance of type in all
SVG Viewers.
Font Subsetting Specifies a method for choosing which glyphs are saved with the SVG file. If you are likely to
change the text content of the file—for example, if you plan to set variables—do not choose None (Use System Fonts)
or Only Glyphs Used; choose one of the other options.
• None (Use System Fonts) Omits all fonts, which keeps the file size as small as possible. However, this setting relies
on the fonts being installed on the user’s system.
• Only Glyphs Used Includes the set of glyphs for text that exists in the document. This option is not available for
linked fonts. Do not use this option if the textual content of the SVG file might change.
• Common English Includes the set of English font characters.
• Common English & Glyphs Used Includes the set of English font characters plus all other glyphs used in the
document.
• Common Roman Includes the set of roman-letter font characters.
• Common Roman & Glyphs Used Includes the set of roman-letter font characters plus all other glyphs used in this
document.
• All Glyphs Includes the full set of English and roman-letter font characters.
