Exporting Files from Illustrator to Use in Expression Suite

With the arrival of the Microsoft Expression products and Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF), the need has arisen to generate files from other design vendors' tools into the XML format that Expression and Visual Studio can understand.

One of the most popular ones comes from Mike Swanson and allows exporting from Illustrator to XML; however, during the tests we have done with Juan Diego we have run into problems of all kinds.

What has worked best so far is saving the file from Illustrator in the CS3 format and then running it through the converter.

I hope this is helpful.
