Export SVG that preserves editable text #63

Open alelordelo opened 7 years ago

alelordelo commented 7 years ago

When I create an SVG in Illustrator, save it with EDITABLE text (not outlined) and then open on an editor like SVG-edit, the text is not imported.

Would be awesome if we could use svgomg to convert an SVG to keep it's text editable.

Is that possible?

Thanks

I believe this is the default behaviour with svgo

Unfortunately not. Maybe I am missing something on my settings...

: )

I created a logo in Illustrator with editable text (not outlined) https://gyazo.com/c80c3a2c2aeb27d05638d5e5e80bf1df

Saved as SVG https://gyazo.com/98729d6ed6f0051fa402e6086f3c3b32

Then opened on SGVOMG, and saved https://gyazo.com/8a7a9f1119e214747dfd42ffe73b0ca9

Then opened on SVG-edit (to see if text editable would be preserved)

But it's all messed up, as you can see bellow: https://gyazo.com/fcd8930c9cb8e4adf12c75bd5a2f2774

Maybe it doesn't work with editable text files?

thanks!
