Import, modify and export SVG graphics to your hearts content.<\/p>\n<p>Also <strong>SVG is an universally recognized Vector file type supported by many other diagram and graphics editors<\/strong> like Adobe Illustrator, MS Visio and Inkscape.

This is great for many scenarios including linked diagrams<\/p>\n<p>For example consider the below simple diagram drawn using Creately and embedded using the Creately diagram viewer. Clicking on each circle takes to you to a different website.<br \/>\n<script type=\"text\/javascript\" language=\"javascript\" src=\"https:\/\/stage.creately.com\/player\/createlyplayerstart.js\"><\/script><\/p>\n<div id=\"creately-container-hieaplkq4-goqgvD9h4YVnGitU3kth5RcLIs=\"><\/div>\n<p><script type=\"text\/javascript\">\ncreatelyPlayerStart( {\ncontainer: \"creately-container-hieaplkq4-goqgvD9h4YVnGitU3kth5RcLIs=\",\ndocid :\"hieaplkq4-goqgvD9h4YVnGitU3kth5RcLIs=\",\ntitle :\"Website Help\",\nwidth :600,height :400,bgcolor :\"#eeeeee\",logo :0\n} );<\/script><br \/>\nBelow you can see the exported PDF document uploaded to Scribed. And you can clearly see that the links are working fine. From now on you never have to worry about link not appearing in exported diagrams.<br \/>\n[scribd id=150103310 key=key-aj9q55xwbgmgdfbyqfc mode=scroll]<\/p>\n<h3><a name=\"createlySVG\"><\/a>SVG Export as a Creately file<\/h3>\n<p>If you ever need to share a Creately file with another person, you can now do so as a &#8216;Creately SVG&#8217; file. This file format allows you to open and view the file even without Creately in any browser. And when you import the file back into Creately, it becomes a fully functional Creately diagram that has all the usual functionality.<\/p>\n<p>So now if you ever want to backup Creately diagrams or send it to other users without using the in-built collaboration features, you can use the Creately SVG format to have a\u00a0truly\u00a0transitional file that gives you the best of both worlds. Creately files are now universally viewable regardless whether you have access to a Creately Product.<\/p>\n<h3><a name=\"vectorObjects\"><\/a>More Objects as Vectors<\/h3>\n<p>Most of our library objects are available in vector format for easy scaling and more sharp images. You will see a considerable change of quality compared to some of our older shape libraries like Network diagrams.<\/p>\n<p>This was one of our most requested features and we&#8217;re overjoyed to bring it to you.
