Re: [Framers] Now it's a buggy SVG IMPORT into Frame 2019 files
Ow. Sorry to hear that. I had a feeling it might be application specific, but since we only work with Visio, it's not something I could check. I will note that for Visio, I did NOT select all the objects in the drawing. I shrank the page size to fit the drawing and then saved the drawing out to SVG. Maybe selecting all works like grouping, even if you don't actually tell Corel to group?

Re: [Framers] Now it's a buggy SVG IMPORT into Frame 2019 files
Hi, I have the same problem with SVG exported from Corel Designer. Parts of the graphics get shifted or stacked. When I ungrouped everything prior to the export, the SVG is still distorted in FrameMaker. Pitty that this does not work. The only work-around which I know is: In Corel Designer select everything and convert only the selected content to PDF. In InkScape open the PDF, crop the page to the imported content (with 1 mm offset) and export to SVG. Not good for 700 graphics files in my installation instructions ...

I've a new update, in case anyone is still curious about this. I've added the information to Tracker, also.

Re: [Framers] Now it's a buggy SVG IMPORT into Frame 2019 files
Hi Yves, Did they loop you in on this? :-) As far as I can tell, there are no options in Visio to change how fonts/glyphs are embedded, but I'm not a Visio power user. All I know is that graphic when saved from Visio as an SVG looks fine in a browser, but if you try to import the SVG into FrameMaker or Illustrator, the graphic callouts and any text get shifted. The same graphic exported from Visio to PDF, however, looks fine when it is imported into FrameMaker, and that's my current focus. Since that works, that's what we're going with until Adobe has a fix. Adobe had suggested editing positioning information in the SVG as a potential workaround, but that gets fiddly and time intensive and really wasn't viable, especially since Adobe is working to correct the issue. We'd just have to redo the images again once the fix is available. On Tue, Oct 23, 2018 at 9:17 AM Yves Barbion wrote: > Hi Lin > > Looks like a problem with font embedding in the SVG files.

Re: [Framers] Now it's a buggy SVG IMPORT into Frame 2019 files
Hi Lin Looks like a problem with font embedding in the SVG files. I don't know about Visio, but in Adobe Illustrator, you can select font embedding settings when you save your graphic as SVG: subset only glyphs used, all glyphs, no glyphs (and use system fonts) etc. Maybe you could do some tests with those settings? There may be one which works with Fm 2019.

Re: [Framers] Now it's a buggy SVG IMPORT into Frame 2019 files
Here's an update for those who might still be curious about this. I've been in fairly extensive contact with Adobe regarding this issue. Yesterday I was told that the problem lies with a bug in their SVG libraries and affects other Adobe programs, such as Illustrator. The FrameMaker development team is working with the SVG imaging team on the problem. No word on when a fix might be available, but this is apparently a big enough issue that they've got a few people working to resolve it. Meantime, my coworker and I are saving the Visio files out to PDF, which works.

Re: [Framers] Now it's a buggy SVG IMPORT into Frame 2019 files
We do them this way so they're easy to reuse in multiple documents. At any rate, Adobe developers are working with some sample files I sent them to see if they can find the issue. Here's hoping for a fix RSN.

Could you skip Visio and just add the SnagIt images into Frame, and then add the callouts and text boxes in Frame?

Re: [Framers] Now it's a buggy SVG IMPORT into Frame 2019 files
Some days, it just doesn't pay to get out of bed. Importing the Visio files using File > Import > File gets the image in without the weirdnesses happening with the lines. But importing the file, even if specified as import by reference, is importing by copy with a link to the Visio file, so yes, it updates if the Visio source is changed, but the FrameMaker file size is increased DRASTICALLY. I am so FRUSTRATED, I'm about to go back to the FrameMaker 2017 installation and tell my co-worker we'll just wait for the next 6 months or so and see if SVG issues (2 now!) get fixed.
