What this video covers

This video shows how to use the Convertify Figma plugin to import pre-optimized SVG files into Figma. It demonstrates that the imported SVGs keep the same visual appearance while using fewer groups and simplified vector layers for easier editing.

Things you'll need

• Figma
• Convertify Figma plugin
• SVG files

Steps

1. Open Figma and go to the Resources tab.
2. Search for Convertify under the Plugins tab and save it to your Figma plugins list.
3. On the canvas, right-click and go to Plugins > Saved Plugins > Convertify to run the plugin.
4. Click the Import into Figma tab, then choose Import Optimized SVG to Figma from the workflow selector.
5. Drag and drop an SVG file into the plugin to import an optimized version onto the page.
6. Compare the optimized SVG with a normal SVG import to see the reduced groups and vector layers.
