Imported SVG files Get Clipped
We have a curious problem: We are bringing in a 700-page addition to our document from another source, complete with graphics. The master page and variable conversions went smoothly. But, when we attempted to import and re-link the hundreds of graphics, we've run into a consistent, recurring glitch: Our normal file format is .cgm, but these files with the new document are .svg files that we've never used before. The basic page format is two-columns and the 1-column wide .svg files import nicely. When we try to import two-column and "full-page" .svg files, however, the images get clipped off to the right and along the top about a third of the way on each axis. Some files have some call-outs drop out unexpectedly, regardless of image size. We also have black artifact lines in the art (similar to the infamous PageMaker 3.1 register table glitch in the early 1990s) in both axes in some figures. Since the narrower files import perfectly, I don't see how it can be a filter issue, but I just don't have any experience with the .svg format to be sure of anything. Any Listers out there have any suggestions? Thanks! Randy This material contains confidential and proprietary information of Force Protection, Inc. and its subsidiaries.
