Choosing a format for Illustrator target files
From an Illustrator AI source file, you can create target files in either the bitmap GIF, JPEG, PNG, or WBMP formats;
or the vector SVG, SVGZ, or SWF formats. From an Illustrator SVG source file, you can create target files only in the
bitmap formats.
When you specify an AI source file, you must choose between the bitmap and vector optimized formats. If you
choose the bitmap formats, you optimize the file in the Save For Web dialog box. If you choose the vector formats,
you optimize the file in Illustrator.
To specify a target format for an AI file
1
In the Layout Editor, add a Smart Illustrator object
2
In the Basic tab of the Smart Illustrator Image Inspector, reference the AI file in the Source text box.
3
In the Conversion Settings dialog box, choose one of the following:
Bitmap Formats
Opens the Save For Web dialog box so you can optimize the file in GIF, JPEG, PNG, or WBMP
format.
.
SVG or SVG Compressed
Opens Illustrator so you can set optimization options in the SVG Options dialog box.
(SVG Compressed creates an SVGZ file.)
SWF
Opens Illustrator so you can set optimization options in the Macromedia Flash (SWF) Format Options dialog
box.

Adding sliced Illustrator SVG images
If you use a Smart Illustrator object, GoLive can work with slices established in Illustrator SVG files. As with sliced
Photoshop images, you can assign links to slices and optimize them independently.
GoLive saves the optimized target file for each slice in an
image_name
.data folder. Place this folder in the site folder
so that GoLive can properly manage and publish the target files.

To update links in an SVG file
GoLive can track links in Illustrator SVG files. If a link destination moves, GoLive automatically prompts you to
update the link.
1
In the Layout Editor, select the SVG object that contains the link.
2
In the In & Out Links palette, specify the link destination.
