We started building Nano to solve a problem: the SVG images used on our website (embed with <img> tags) are not showing the correct font we've chosen - Roboto. After few rounds of testing and searching for solutions, embedding fonts seemed to be the best way to solve the problem, without ballooning our SVG files size. We've wrote a blog post on how we came up with this solution on CSS-Tricks here: https://css-tricks.com/using-custom-fonts-with-svg-in-an-ima...
Would love to get some comments from the HN community on Nano, especially on the compression we've done: https://vecta.io/blog/2018/05/08/how-nano-compresses-svg/
Anything else that you think we could have done better in terms of compression? :)

We're hopeful our export to SVG feature would have provide LOTS of options to use desktop software or other online SaaS to have continued access to your work. In these days and age, SaaS players must be open especially so with their file formats, and since we want to work well with other platforms, but not reinventing the wheel, we opt for SVG file format, so it can continue to work well with others for many years to come. Hope it clears your doubts :)

Oh we weren't aware, thanks for telling. But we're hopeful to do more than that rather than just simply svg editing :)

Many apologies, may we get back to you in 4 hours or so? Our devs are all asleep now (huge time difference), and I'm afraid I can't help much :/ Really sorry, I'll ensure it is fixed in max 5 hours' time

We've just tried on our side, works fine. Was it still the same after refreshing?
Re:Show HN: Vecta.io - Team diagramming with an advanced SVG editor

We'll have a check on that. Thanks for telling!

Thanks! We were also looking for alternatives previously before started building Vecta, but none fits the bill. Atm we gona polish Vecta up and ensure it's as good as what our users expected or even better :)

Thanks for raising your concern to us, but we're by no means trying to avoid the topic as we're like what you said, not too certain of the pricing yet. We're pro to freemium model atm. Rest assured, we'll ensure your data won't be locked in and is well integrated with other platforms. Thanks for helping us to improve on our users' experience, we'll work hard on that :)

Yea, we overlooked this part when putting up the demo page. Will be remedying it real soon. TQ
