You can report this in the desktop application by clicking on the "person with sppech bubble" icon in the upper right corner of the program window. Choose I don't like something and describe the problem. If you prepare a page in advance with your screenshots, you can include a screen shot to illustrate the problem.

SVG is a relatively new format in Office. For a vector with better support, use EMF format instead. You can convert SVG to EMF using the free software package InkScape.
