Strokes in SVG exported from Animate are wrong in Illustrator

Community Beginner ,
May 17, 2017 May 17, 2017

My client wants EPS stills from my Animate animations.

The only form of vector still exportable from Animate, that I can see, is SVG using export (legacy).

When I import this into Illustrator, so that I can then export it as an EPS, the stroke information is wrong.

The graphic symbols I used have strokes within them.  But if, say, the graphic symbol has been scaled down to 50%, the strokes still show up as 100% in Illustrator.

I have tried to import the SVG into Photoshop as well, but in Photoshop the mask layer is visible.

I am using the latest Animate and Illustrator downloads.

Any suggestions, apart from breaking apart each symbol and changing the stroke information?

I know this is an older post and might not be what you're looking for but I felt I should share a trick an animator friend gave me for this problem.

Using Export (Legacy) to create SVG files from Animate CC 2018, a number of illustrations from old .fla files were ending up with thickened line weights on certain parts. While I have no quick fix for exporting SVG files that retain the stroke widths for problem areas, the trick is simply to select the stroke and use Modify > Shape > Convert Lines to

Using Export (Legacy) to create SVG files from Animate CC 2018, a number of illustrations from old .fla files were ending up with thickened line weights on certain parts. While I have no quick fix for exporting SVG files that retain the stroke widths for problem areas, the trick is simply to select the stroke and use Modify > Shape > Convert Lines to Fills in Animate. No changing stroke widths in either application.

Files exported after that looked as they should and I made the process faster by setting up a keyboard shortcut for that command.
