Open Unfilled Paths

Will an image be rejected if it has open paths that are unfilled? I want some paths that are simply strokes with different profiles, is this okay?

Paths

Do: Use the right number of anchor points — not so many that a shape gets jagged and not so few that the curves look unnatural or flat.

Do: Close paths on all filled shapes.

Do: Consider using a variety of stroke weights in your image.

Do: Check out Illustrator Learn & Support for tutorials on topics ranging from making images with shapes to using dynamic symbols.

Hope that helps.
