Extrange gaps in imported SVG from Adobe Illustrator

[Anonymous]

Does anyone know why this happens?

Hi, this usually happens to my pretty often, sometimes I can deal with it and it gives no errores but other times I can't do nothing till I clean all the geometry, (and sometimes they are a lot), why this happens? I need to clean it manually or it can be done automatically?

Is it because I imported it wrong?

Maybe is AdobeIllustrator? (I can't see anything wrong there)

Thanks to anyone replying.

Hey krashadar3d,

I wish this were a Fusion 360 problem because then we might be able to help, but this geometry is an artifact of the way Illustrator is creating the geometry. My guess is that it has to do with the NASA font. Downloaded fonts and vector graphics can come with all kinds of anomalies that don't translate well to 3D geometry and fabrication. 

The solution here would be to clean up the geometry within illustrator before importing, or to do it in Fusion after you bring it in. In illustrator if you use the shortcut CTRL (CMD) + Y, it will toggle between showing line weight and rendering everything as hairlines. That might help you clean it up before importing.
