User Guide
2 Do one of the following:
• To apply an effect with its default settings, select the effect from the bottom section of the Effect > SVG Filters
submenu.
• To apply an effect with custom settings, choose Effect > SVG Filters > Apply SVG Filter. In the dialog box, select
the effect, and click the Edit SVG Filter button . Edit the default code and click OK.
• To create and apply a new effect, choose Effect > SVG Filters > Apply SVG Filter. In the dialog box, click the
New SVG Filter button , enter the new code, and click OK.
When you apply an SVG filter effect, Illustrator displays a rasterized version of the effect on the artboard. You can
control the resolution of this preview image by modifying the document’s rasterization resolution setting.
Important: An SVG effect must be the last effect when an object uses multiple effects; in other words, it must appear at
the bottom of the Appearance palette (just above the Transparency entry). If other effects follow an SVG effect, the SVG
output will consist of a raster object.

remove events linked to the file, click the Link JavaScript Files button . In the JavaScript Files dialog box, select
