Export AI file to SVG

Postby TalwinderS » Fri Nov 16, 2012 10:46 pm

Hello forum,

I'm creating a project in which user will upload an ai file, than I need to convert it to svg so that User can edit it.
Now, as per my progress I can convert the ai to png, by passing below code as argument in a process(hopefully will help someone):
inkscape -f youraifileName.ai -e yourconversionfileName.svg

Can someone please let me know how to save it(the uploaded ai file) as svg ?

Thanks,
Talwinder

Hello Inkscape,

I managed to export to svg from ai file, instead to pdf as well.
For developers or anyone in need :-)
Here is what my command Line or a Process argument looks like:
inkscape -f inputpathwithFileName.ai -l OutputPathwithFileName.svg

Thanks,
Talwinder Singh
