Can someone extend the capabilities of Illustators Asset Export. The thing is i have alot of icons drawn pixel perfect in 44 x 44 px - each on their own named artboard. I need these exported as .ai files for print and i need them exported as SVG´s - I can export as SVG as it is now - but i can only export SVG with a decimal precision of 5 and this is not high enough for me to get good quality (becasue they are drawn this small) i need a decimal setting of 7. Is this something you can program ?

2022 - i will try upgrade to 2023 (i thought i updated the other day but did not)  i hope i fixes it !


Okay ... i upgraded to 2023 - now it works ! 15 is the max. value.
Thanks for the input i got.  I would still like to be able to export AI files though 🙂  But mb i can convince the client that PDF is a better choice.  But we are talking over 300 icons in multiple color version - for both print and web. Thats why i would like i working as smooth as possible before we start.

br,

Mike

I don't seem to have any trouble setting more than 5 in Asset Export. I set 8 here and checked in Chrome:

But try TAb out of the number field - then it goes to 5 !

It doesn't for me. This is the exported SVG in Chrome:

 

What OS and AI version are you using? Can you share a screenshot of your export settings?

For print: are you really sure you absolutely need SVG?

Exporting first RGB -  change color mode - change colours - then export CMYK !
