We need more detailed instructions on how best to generate SVG from
programs like Adobe Illustrator.  It would be a big help if an Adobe
Illustrator user could provide a tutorial consisting of detailed
screenshots of the save process and the various options.
Files need to maximise compatibility but without turning everthing into
embedded raster images.

Inkscape and Sodipodi users should of course all be using:
Save As, Plain SVG.
