Greetings,
While scripting some automated placedItem replacements, I stumbled upon some issues with the feature failing in specific cases.
While most of them ended up working somehow at a later date, this one still fails:
Namely, the placing of an SVG image using a script. More specifically, I replace an existing graphic with one from an SVG image.
It doesn't matter whether I try to place it or replace an existing image, Adobe pops up with the following helpful error message:
'The file "TEST.svg" is in a format which cannot be placed'
Naturally, the test-image has been created using illustrator itself, and manually placing OR replacing the file through the interface 'just' works.
Should I be dropping this in a bug-report forum or is here ok?
Or are there specific demands for placeable SVGs?
