Corel Painter (RIF) technical notes
• The embedded color profile is preserved, but can be changed after importing the file.

• Vector shapes are not preserved in the imported file.
• Text and annotations are not preserved.
• Bitmap layers are imported as grouped objects.
• Liquid Ink, Watercolor, Digital Watercolor, and plug-in layers are imported as RGB objects.
• Mosaics and tesselations are imported as RGB objects.

Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG)
Scalable Vector Graphics (SVG) is an open standard graphics file format that allows designers to put the power of vector graphics to work on
the web. It was created by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C®).
SVG files are described in Extensible Markup Language (XML). They are vector graphic images, which can provide superior detail and faster
download times than bitmaps. Compressed SVG files have an .svgz filename extension.
To view SVG files, you need an SVG viewer plug-in such as the Corel SVG viewer.
Unicode support
SVG files support Unicode encoding for text. When exporting an SVG file, you can choose a Unicode encoding method.
Embedding and linking
You can embed information in an SVG file, or you can create additional files to store some of the information. For example, you can embed
a style sheet in an SVG file, or you can create an external cascading style sheet and link it to the SVG file. By default, JavaScript, such as
JavaScript related to rollovers, is embedded in the exported file, but you can choose to store it as a separate file linked to the SVG file. Also,
you can embed bitmaps, or you can save bitmaps as externally linked files.
Exporting text
You can export text as text or curves. When exporting text as text, you can choose to embed all fonts in a Scalable Vector Graphics file to
have full editing capabilities. You can also embed only the fonts used, and common English or common Roman fonts.
Using preset export options
To make your work easier, you can use preset export options, and you can create custom preset export options that you can reuse later.
Using SVG colors
SVG colors correspond to color keywords. You can use the SVG color palette available in the application to help ensure that colors in the
exported SVG file are defined by color keywords. To ensure that the SVG color names you choose are retained in the SVG exported file, it
is recommended that you disable color correction. For information about color correction, see “Getting started with color management in
Corel DESIGNER” on page 327.
