Like the Path primitive, you can use the compact representation for your data path as following :

C D R 96 T 18 P 4.59 5.36 D R 68 T 9 D R 59 T 37 D R 87 T 46 P 13.81 S -7.6

Compact representation of path

Syntax for the compact representation :

C : Define a Contour. A path can have one or more C command. The compact representation need to start with this code.



C command can be followed optionnaly by :

O : define if the contour is open. If you don't insert an "0", the Contour object is automatically closed.



Its followed by one or more :

D : define the beginning of a point's declaration.

Its followed by :

• horizontal constraints :
  • X : position on x axe
  OR
  • L : follow by a number, define the position of point at left
  • H : follow by a number, define the position of point at horizontalCenter
  • R : follow by a number, define the position of point at right
• vertical constraints :
  • Y : position on y axe
  OR
  • T : follow by a number, define the position of point at top
  • V : follow by a number, define the position of point at verticalCenter
  • B : follow by a number, define the position of point at bottom
• P : predecessor bezier with one or two numbers for x and y offset position
• S : successor bezier with one or two numbers for x and y offset position

Sample

This primitive defines with a compact representation...

...is exactely the same that :

You can use the Fireworks extension to obtain the compact representation of path of your graphic.
