Choosing a format for Illustrator source files


    For Smart Illustrator objects, you can specify source files in AI or SVG format. You can optimize AI files in both vector and bitmap formats, but SVG files only in bitmap formats. You must use SVG source files, however, if you want to edit slices and variables created in Illustrator.

    Note: GoLive does not support multilayered Illustrator files. Layered Illustrator images are flattened during the optimization and conversion process.
