Hi Paul,
I think our use of ill2svg only really works on versions Illustrator 7 and prior. After 7 I believe Adobe moved the illustrator .ai file format to the PDF file format.

Hi List,
I am discovering InkScape with great pleasure. It seems to have the confort of Illustrator, of which I've been a fan since version 3.2, but adopts more standards, and maybe even more interactivity!
One project I'd like to try is to bring the library of plan-sketches of our furnitures from Illustrator to InkScape... But I am encountering at least the following two issues:
- shapes that have "zero-stroke" (that it "printer-dot-thin" more or less)
are filled with black
- no text is imported
I am on the impression that, most probably, I am using a wrong version of the Illustrator documents... but ill2svg says nothing about the supported versions... My attempt was on Illustrator 8 format (Mac line-endings) and Illustrator 5.5 format (Mac line-endings).... should I go as far as Illustrator 3 ?
thanks
paul
