Frequently asked questions
Is the Africa SVG really free?
Yes. No account, no watermark, no download limit. The boundary data comes from OpenStreetMap under the Open Database License (ODbL), so credit OpenStreetMap when you publish the file.
What resolution do I get?
SVG is a vector format and stays sharp at any size. The 256 to 2048 pixel options only set the default dimensions written into the file; you can scale it freely afterwards.
How do I open an SVG file?
Any browser displays it. For editing use Figma, Adobe Illustrator, Inkscape (free) or Affinity Designer.
Can I change the colour and level of detail for Africa?
Yes. The map editor lets you set fill and stroke colour, stroke width, background, size and simplification before you download.
Licence and source
