Well you could convert the beziers into lines upon importing, so you could for example supply a subdivide parameter that would determine how many line segments to break it into. The higher the number the smoother the splits. As I say, Ive not got Illustrator - perhaps, and without promising anything, someone could export me a few files using the JSON export supplied above and maybe an SVG version, along with an image of what they represent. It should include all the items you think it likely that could be converted directly to work in corona.
No-one wants to produce a sample for me to look into this? 
I do, I do! Been swamped these last few days… But will try and post something later tonight.
Many thanks!
Jeff
Same, tried to make a sample a few days back but the draw script only works on cs6. Will have to wait until im in at work tomorrow to get something to you, the race is on…
OK Racoonic, got a friend to output. Here is a zip with vectorTest in .ai, jpeg (demo) and json file.

Heh fun example 
I’ll take a look. I’ve done bezier curve subdivision before so it shouldn’t be too tricky (assuming all the polygon stuff in G2 works ok).
What types of primitives are there that could be supported?
The face and what not look like general shapes that can support curves and straight edges.
Is there also a circle / ellipse primitive?
We’ll have to see how the polygon tool handles concave shapes. I’m not really expecting any problems on this front, but it might make for interesting times if someone wants to use these shapes for physics collisions…
Okay, here’s another one. This is an ice cream cone with a number of pieces to it - but hopefully not too complicated. If it is, I guess you could just try part of it. The zip file at the link below has the ai file, png, svg, and json output. Thanks for giving this a whirl! I’m sure many will appreciate your efforts.

There’s no real issue with ‘complicated’ as it all breaks down nicely enough in the JSON file.
I think I am more likely to run into centering problems than anything else, from what I’ve read in the forums, but I have high hopes something useful might come out of all this.
I won’t have time today to look into it, but just as an aside I can’t promise each object will be an individual polygon object - I may have to create several objects and merge them into a display group.
The functionality that I’m especially looking for is being able to change things like fill color of a vector shape exported from Illustrator. An example would be something like a bunch of shapes in a coloring book where you want to let users “paint” them different colors.
Ah that’s awesome.
Well the goal would be to get in each shape as a seperate shape in corona as well, rather than just a purely visual match.
So once that is in, it’d be fine.
One question though - how would you know which object is which - is there a way of placing a name tag or something on an object that gets exported? If so, a few helper functions would be enough to do what you want, once everything is in and pretty.
I’m a little unclear on what the import to Corona process would look like. That is, what do you expect the workflow would be from exporting the Illustrator json to working with a shape within Corona? Would there be an opportunity to insert a name into the json file somehow and have become a property of the shape?
What I’m planning for now is you simply copy and paste the JSON export contents into a text file, and would pass that file name to the import routine, so yeah you could add in tags and what-not.
The problem is more how to identify each object in the case you can’t put tags or names or IDs into the objects from within Illustrator - say you export a file with 200 objects, how exactly are you going to track down which object receives the ID?
There’s no real benefit over adding it manually to the JSON output as opposed to doing it in corona (in fact it’d probably be easier in Corona, as you’d be working on the objects individually as opposed to having to find the X object and its definition in JSON).
The end result, however, would likely be a display group with each object as a child within it, so you’d be able to iterate through them at will. The tag idea would enable you to find objects directly by this tag though, making it much simpler.
Just away from the office right now but wondering whether labels would be output to json if each object is put to its own layer (example I sent was all objects on one layer) probably those labels would show up on the svg. Rakoonic, would svg be a better format to use than json?
No idea, I know nothing about all this.
JSON would give me a head start simply because Corona already has a JSON importer.
What I’d probably do is start with the JSON just to check I can do what is needed, then expand it to use SVG if possible, as I have the feeling you are almost certainly right about SVG being a better format.
OK I made a start on this, and I’ve got stuff showing, but…
What the heck is happening with the polygon placement? If I create a polygon with values all around 7000, I do not expect to see it sitting at the origin :s
I understand they go through the painful (to me) process of normalising the polygon so it has the anchor at the middle (another reason I am really beginning to hate anchors), but they should at least then offset the X and Y by the amount so, you know, it appears where the points were set, at least :s
Anyway I expect this to only be a small delay, but it is a frustrating thing. I know I read this elsewhere on the forums, so I’m not the only one finding this behaviour unhelpful, to say the least.
Righto got some placement working right, and I’m going to store all the bounding areas of each shape I create so you can see roughly where it all ended up, in case you create it but you can’t see it.
The face demo I’ve got importing ok, and should look a lot better when I have in bezier subdivision.
The icecream one for now produces a long list of errors saying it can’t create the polygons due to holes or self-intersection, then produces a segment fault and crashes the simulator. I seem to be rather good at doing that lately
I do have some ideas on what might be the problem in that respect, but it’d be useful to know if the icecream does indeed have any holes in it, as that seems to be a (reasonable) limitation of newPolygon(). I think not, from the image, but can’t hurt to double check.
I had a look at the Ice-Cream vector graphic in CS6, and there are some open paths with a stroke+fill.
The Cherry has two open paths, and one part of the cone are some that I could find.
Would that be the problem?
Not sure but likely. I could close them up if I find them, but we’ll have to see.
I’ve got the face drawing correctly, at least. Subdivision for the bezier is hard-coded, but you’d likely want this to be based on length of the line segments etc, but that’ll be for another day.
Time to see what happens with the icecream now I know the code roughly works
Yup ice cream crashes. I imagine the open ends don’t help.
I’ll try removing bits to see what, if anything, I can get to draw to find the culprits by a process of elimination.
