How can I save file in SVG format Version: 6.00 Build 0

Hi, can anyone please tell me how can I save file in SVG format Version: 6.00 Build 0. When I choose to save file as SVG, the SVG save options menu in SVG profiles section offers only the following formats: 

SVG 1.0

SVG 1.1

SVG Tiny 1.1

SVG Tiny 1.1+

SVG Basic 1.1

SVG Tiny 1.2

 

But there is no SVG 6.0 format. Need help. Mayday, mayday...

Start by actually opening the file in Inkscape, as it obviously originated there, anyway. From the looks of it it was simply not expanded correctly and uses a bunch of stuff that AI is crap at. This will render fine in a browser, but AI just won't know what to do with some of the definitions. Once you have it in Inkscape you can export it to whatever format from there, including a cleaned up SVG or a PDF.

It's absolutely not clear what this weird spec is even supposed to be. You need to clarify where this request is coming from. This makes no sense at all.

I have a file in SVG format as a part of the software. The beginning of the code says the following: 

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no"?>
<!-- Generator: Adobe Illustrator 22.0.1, SVG Export Plug-In . SVG Version: 6.00 Build 0) -->

 

If I try to edit the file using Illustrator 25.0 and save it. I find no option in saving it as SVG Version: 6.00. And if  I save it using one of the suggested by Illustrator SVG plugin formats, the program I prepare this file for just does not read it correctly. And of course the style of the code of the original file and the file I save using the suggested formats differ.

I think you are misunderstang this. The comment about the export plug-in version is merely for housekeeping purposes. For all intents and purposes it does nothing to the actual SVG functionality and could just as well be deleted. So whatever issues you have likely have other causes, but without knowing anything about your system or what that other software you are trying to import to is, it's impossible to diagnose the problem.
