How I've been saving:

- Save as 

- SVG 1.1

- Image location: Embed 

 

I should note that the preview of the saved items show correctly however when I try to use the SVG in other programs such as Sketch, the issue then shows. 


Thank you.

 

I tried an export the same way as you did it.

I also imported that SVG into a third party app (Affinity Publisher in my case).

I didn't see any issues.

 

Don't know why there should be issues, but also I don't know what Sketch is doing. So I would suggest you ask this in a Sketch forum.

    You could try if Expanding appearance before saving improves it.
