Xd Export SVG outline fonts option and dev specs svg options on download or upon dev specs creation

Is there a way to update the exporting of svgs to support outlining fonts in the program? Also adding the ability to choose the svg exporting options in dev specs for developers. Our developers have issues with svgs that include type/fonts as the font files aren't embedded and there isn't a way to outline fonts in the dev specs. Or give option to outline on dev specs link creation?

    For now the only way to get outlines is to use Object > Path > Convert to Path and then export. Of course this will make the text no longer editable, so you'd want to do this on a copy of the file (or keep an editable copy of the asset somewhere).

     

    FYI, Figma has an Outline Text option for its SVG export.
