Adding Adobe Illustrator artwork
Choosing a format for Illustrator source files
For Smart Illustrator objects, you can use source files in AI or SVG format. From AI source files, you can create
optimized target files in both vector and bitmap formats. SVG source files require target files in bitmap formats. Use
SVG source files if you want to edit slices created in Illustrator.
Note:
GoLive does not support multilayered Illustrator files. Layered Illustrator images are flattened during the optimi­
zation and conversion process.
