Luc,

 

In addition to what Ton said, I believe we are looking at three Anchor Points at the bottom, the lowest on being a wee bit futher down and an even weer bit to the right.

 

And it seems that you have two slightly mismatched open end Anchor Points at the upper left corner, one.

 

You can deselect, zoom way in, and click the outer path with the Direct Selection Tool to see all the Anchor Points.

 

And you can count the number of Anchor Points in Document Info and see how much it is different to the expected number, and whether the path is closed or open.

 

 

Edit: Hi Ton, surprise visit by the sun today.

Can you check the bottom point(s) it looks like multiple or not connected points instead of a single one.

Thank you for your feedback.

In fact, it seams to be two points :

I grouped them, and now here is the export :

 

I don't understand why we don't get in exports what we see in illustrator

Luc,

 

You path is (now) open; you can Direct Select them and Object>Path>Average, then Join them.

 

I wonder what happened to the spike, and whether you might have deleted the/a third Anchor Point beneath the others.

 

See my other post for reference.
