Dear friends,

I'm trying to insert the company logo in the titleblock. I inserted the logo as SVG image, and it works. The *.mi draft is saved normally to the PDM and the logo is maintained, and the logo is still present when I export the drawing as DWG or PDF.

What is not OK:

1) The background of the logo is always black, even if the SVG file has transparent background.

2) The logo has is own color but I would make that it is printed black neverthless the actual color (if I give to the logo the black color I will not see in annotation, and if i give to it the white color I will not see it in the printed drawing).

3) The background of the logo is black in the pdf or dwg files, and this is not good because the sheet nornally has white background.

Currently the logo is drafted with a lot of splines connected toghether and it works, but every template is 3 MB and I don't want to waste disk space just for a simple logo.

Any suggestions?

I tried loading a SVG file into Annotation as well as into Drafting and it gives me error message:

*** 'C:/work/osd/cadde/downloads/https___www.svgrepo.com_show_530183_elk.svg' is not a valid MI file

I used
* this https://www.svgrepo.com/show/530183/elk.svg and
* that https://www.svgrepo.com/show/532036/cloud-rain-alt.svg (as a very simple)

SO: I can't cross check.

How did you load the 'svg' file ?  Are you sure it is real SVG? What happens when opening it within an ascii editor. Do you see the tags?

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<svg version="1.1"
     xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg">
        <path ...>
</svg>

In former times we loaded an image file and redrawed the contour with normal lines and arcs (avoiding splines for data reduction) and created a closed contour. Then we placed a colored hatch within that contour and it was fine... when viewing and printing and exporting.

You might want to redraw your logo within annotation and save the simple contour as sketch for further reuse.

Question 1: how big is your SVG file on disk?
Question 2: how many tags it does contain?

Hi Wolfgang, thank you for reply.

the logo is actually an SVG file:

Code:

---

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!DOCTYPE svg PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD SVG 1.0//EN" "http://www.w3.org/TR/2001/REC-SVG-20010904/DTD/svg10.dtd">
<!-- Created with Inkscape (http://www.inkscape.org/) by Marsupilami -->
<svg xmlns:svg="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/2000/svg" version="1.0" width="1024" height="579" viewBox="-1.61146866 -1.61146866 100.65293732 56.93855932" id="svg2825">

I can insert the svg file from a command in the GUI that executes this string: am_picture_create

I can insert the svg file ... am_picture_create

Oh .. okay.  I see. Thanks for the enlightenment.

In my (old) Version (currently PE8.0) the types supported are "*.bmp; *.png; *.tif; *.jpg; *.tiff; *.jpeg" only. And using AM_PICTURE_CREATE shows the same error. Well it is basically the same load command executed in the annotator.exe.

Using that version I can't help you for now.
