Importing vector graphics for interface

[Alejandro Tejada]

Actually the download direction is:
http://andregarzia.on-rev.com/alejandro/stacks/Eps_Import_V05B.zip
Works only with Ilustrator version 7 or minor (v6, v5.5, etc...).

More recent Illustrator versions are actually PDF files.
Notice that to resize the vector graphics you should use
a library like altMobileResizer:

The following text was posted originally in 2010:
New in this version: Basic functionality to import ilustrator blends
as gradients. Still pending to create code for some important blend
properties.

Important caveat:
Your ilustrator gradients should have a name compatible
with the Runrev convention for variable names.
That is, your gradients names in ilustrator should not have any
"ilegal" characters like commas, ampersand (&), etc, etc.

Ilustrator files exported from Xara, (the tool that i use) does not
have this problem, because gradients are named like "Radial gradient 05"
and "Lineal gradient 12".

Hopefully, Runrev will integrate soon this functionality of importing blends
to their SVGL importer stack. In fact, svg graphics are better than
ilustrator graphics because they share many important features with
vector graphics from this platform, like defined geometric shapes
(vital to import round rectangles and circles), alpha properties for each
color inside a fill or stroke and gradients applied to stroke lines.

You could download SVGL for RevOnline:

Alert me in this mail list about any problems with imported Ilustrator
files.
