One of the biggest problems for me in Xara is incorrect translation of fonts to curves. After that, a lot of junk and unnecessary points appear.

I took three letters using Gotham Black.

After translating three letters into curves, we get 96 points.

And here's how it looks in another program:

36 points.

If the selected objects are unloaded in SVG, we will get a file of 5,359 kb, if we do the same in another program, we will get a file of 1,216 kb. And that's just (!!!) three letters.


Also with presentations in PDF. We often need to convert all text into curves and when exporting to PDF we get a giant file with extra points.
