Silkscreen getting messed up upon import from Kicad

Hey, I use Kicad to build my boards and then import to EasyEda to make it easier to panelise and send off to JLCPCB. I noticed that some of the silkscreen gets messed up in the process (It looks fine in Kicad and on GerbView), so it's something that happens during import. Initially, I thought this could be just the 3D viewed on EasyEDA, but upon inspection, I noticed this is also visible on EasyEDA. ![Capture.png](//image.easyeda.com/pullimage/XellXhEmpAOsjX2GY2dWMnhxQebs35eqjM6hnhwE.png) Importing the Gerbers directly from Kicad to JLCPCB also **does not** result in corrupted silkscreen. Has anyone experienced this before? Thanks in advance

Hello , EasyEDA support import KiCAD v4.06 and greater version KiCAD files, if the KiCAD files version less then v4.06, please open them at the latest KiCAD and save as a new one, and then import them. The KiCAD file needs to be compressed as zip file before import. Please to consider using a higher resolution for your Silklayer patternsn, maybe it could help saving the small details.

No, that's not it, I am using Kicad 5.1.2 and when I export directly from it to JLCPCB everything looks good. It's something that happens from when it goes to EasyEDA. I'm happy to send you the file if you want to debug, but I think that's an issue with EasyEDA. All my images are high resolution SVGs
