How to use SVG for Belize
- A browser — just open the file: Chrome, Firefox, Safari and Edge show SVG without plugins, and this is the fastest way to check the result.
- Inkscape (free) — its native format: editing outlines and colors, removing what you don't need, exporting to PNG or PDF at the size you want.
- Adobe Illustrator — File > Open, then the usual design work: the map layers arrive as separate groups, convenient to work with one at a time.

FAQ: SVG for Belize
Can I open SVG in a browser?
Yes, SVG is natively supported by all modern browsers.
Is SVG suitable for printing?
Yes, SVG is a vector format, so it can be printed at any resolution.
Can I edit SVG files?
Yes, in Inkscape, Illustrator, Figma, Affinity Designer, and any text editor.
Are the labels text or curves?
Text. We deliberately do not convert them into outlines: this way they stay crisp and carry over correctly into PDF, AI and DWG. The flip side is that a label is drawn as separate characters, so editing the whole string in an editor is inconvenient.
Are the map layers preserved?
Yes. Roads, buildings, water, greenery and the rest arrive as separate named groups instead of one heap of objects — so a whole layer can be switched off or recolored in one action. How exactly the groups are shown depends on the editor: somewhere it is a layers panel, somewhere an object tree. If the layers get in the way, ungroup them with one command.
