PNG / SVG Export

RE: mekkablue … The following post describes what I want to do and what is not working for me:

Something seems seriously wrong with SVG output by Glyphs3

Using “Filter as Image” I’ve exported various icon glyphs as SVG. Most of them don’t render properly not only in macOS preview, but neither in Vectornator nor Affinity Designer. Doesn’t seem much good to export as an “SVG image” if nothing can parse it or render it properly. I’ve attached a couple of examples. One of them (the smaller image) is a screenshot of the icon in my font, along with the totally unrecognizable rendering of the Glyphs3-exported “SVG” image of it, in Vectornator, and t…

I have a font of over 350 glyph (icons). I need to be able to break my artwork out of the font into SVG in order to piecemeal it out for specific purposes, without having to distribute the font itself, and I don’t know how I can do that, since exporting SVG from Glyphs 3, with “Filter As Image”, isn’t producing SVG that anything seems to be able to render properly.

And the other issue is that with so many glyphs, it is tedious to have to manually export them one by one. And also, I’m not sure if that flips a switch that causes them not to be exported into the font.

I really need this and would appreciate any guidance I can get for extracting those icons into SVG either your code, 3rd party code or guidance on how I could write some code to do it. If you know of any tools or techniques I’d really appreciate the tips!
