\"How<\/a><\/p>\n

Last week, I showed you how to create Hand Lettered Cricut Files in Adobe Illustrator<\/a>. Those designs are called SVG Files and now and now for the 24 Week Cricut Series<\/a>, I’m showing you how to upload SVG Files to Cricut Designs Space! <\/p>\n

In case you don’t know what an SVG file is, it’s pretty simple. It stands for Scalable Vector Graphics<\/strong> which means you can resize an image as large or as small as you’d like and it won’t lose any quality in the design. If you were to make a pixel image (like one taken from a camera) smaller, then make it large again, you would lose all the quality in that image.<\/p>\n

That doesn’t happen with SVG files. You could design an SVG file the size of a business card, then upload it to Cricut Design Space and scale it to fit the size of the mat, and it would still look the same. I like to use PNG files for Print and Cut because I can use my own pattern scales (more on that later), but if I want a large item, I will always save it in vector format in Adobe Illustrator<\/a>.<\/p>\n

This tutorial is REALLY similar to uploading Cricut Print and Cut Files to Design Space<\/a>. There is one step that’s a little different, and since my readers specifically ask for uploading each type of file, I figured they each deserved their own post \ud83d\ude42<\/p>\n
