Illustrator Svg Embed Or Link. Theres no real performance difference either way since the file still has to be loaded. To create and apply a new effect choose Effect SVG Filters Apply SVG Filter.

Illustrator is not a suitable web development application. The SVG option embeds the fonts or the system fonts which you can then swap out in the code with your custom web fonts using a little HTML andor CSS. A window will popup next to the image within your palette. Creating linked content means that if you edit the placed file in Photoshop for example the linked item will update in Illustrator once placed as its not fully embedded but rather linked.
