There are overlapping nodes (on starting points, triangles) on some curves exported to ai or eps. Is it a bug and how to avoid it?
Here are the screens:
Sorry for the delay.
Yes, Ronny, pdf does the job. And yes, for the price of separating fills and outlines.
Ai is definitely the industry standard so this bug is obviously critical.
I really love CorelDraw but I'm tired of the feeling that I'm traveling in dying Howl's moving castle — something somewhere is always broken no matter which the SP is.
Btw, here's the files (cdr, ai, eps and pdf). Try the outer upper node in the ai or eps. I couldn't find how to upload zip here, on the forum, so here's the outer link to my site:

Your file to an AI file, opened in AI.
Perfect isn't it? )
Try to move outer upper point (see the screen attached). That's what I'm talking about. I'm using CC 2017 version.
Wow! You truly love the graphic software )
If I import the exported ai in CD there is an extra node, but the other one (see the screen).
Yeah, my workflow is similar: I prefer to create prototypes and layouts in CD and then export them to ai (as it is a standard out there), fixing some minor bugs, if any, already in AI. But my toolbox is significantly smaller ) CD and AI is enough for me in most situations. Recently I've made a survey of Affinity, very nice app ).
But this overlapping nodes issue is very unpleasant for me as I don't know how to fix it in AI. Tried to simplify paths but on 100% and 180° levels AI changes the shape of curves or add redundant points. Even deleting the nodes (in case of simple and few curves) doesn't work like in CD: the shape breaks.
If anyone knows any method how to merge these points automatically on all curves in AI it would be appreciated.
