Robert makes a good point, but if no one is expecting a magical increase in resolution, the standardization on graphic type makes sense.

Subject: Re: [Framers] SVG graphic with photograph not importing

When you export the SVG with the embedded bitmap to PDF, is it still
missing? FrameMaker can't always preview vector images.

You're wasting your time embedding bitmaps in SVGs. It's still a
bitmap, so if someone zooms in it you'll start seeing the graininess.
Only the vector portions of the SVG will stay sharp.

I created a Visio diagram by pasting a photograph onto a sheet and adding a text label, then grouping the two together and saving the file first as a
Visio diagram (.vsdx) and then as an SVG file. Visio is set to
automatically display SVG files in a web browser so I can check that things converted correctly. They seemed to; both the picture and the text label
showed up.

But when I import that same SVG file into FrameMaker, the only thing that's visible is the text label I added. Even though the anchored graphic imports at a size indicating that the entire SVG graphic is there, the photograph
isn't visible.

At the moment I'm converting to JPG so I can get a visible image, but I'm wondering if this is a Visio issue (doubting: it shows up correctly in the browser), or a FrameMaker issue, or something I haven't the knowledge of to
even suspect.

Has anyone encountered this before? Is it known what might be the cause? Is there a fix so I can use SVG? (NB: We use SVG because we produce PDFs, and
if someone zooms in or out the graphic doesn't get grainy 'n stuff.)

Also, is it just me or has the list been very, VERY quiet the last couple
of weeks?
