Why is my SVG failing to load in Vector Asset Studio

The SVG below is failing to open in Android Studio's Vector Asset Studio in resulting in the error:

"Empty preview image! EXCEPTION in parsing TareSymbol.svg: For input string: "8.7337904mm"Exception while parsing XML file: Premature end of file."

Why is the following SVG file not compatible with Vector Asset Studio?

Android Studio's Vector Asset Studio is currently not support all the features of SVG. You can convert SVG to VectorDrawable using this tool.

Hope it helps.
