I have a SVG file with a file size of 236 KB. When exporting it to PDF (with default options) it looks fine and the resulting PDF is even reduced in size to 90 KB. Exporting to EMF however, yields a file with size > 150 MB, which is bigger than expected and bigger than usable for me (I need to use the vector graphic in MS Word 2010 which, sadly, does not support SVG).
I couldn't find any options to control the file size. Is there a way or can someone point me to the reason the file size explodes? The SVG file is attached.
That SVG file is a lot more complicated than it needs to be. There's about 13,000 lines of code, most of which is for one clipping path which isn't even needed. I cleaned the file up in Draw by deleting all of the clipping paths and re-exported it as an EMF and it comes in at 260kb and imports into Word with no problem. Attached here in a ZIP with a PNG to show what it looks like.
