The gallery (https://www.otherworldmapper.com/gallery.html) contains only images, but OWM maps are created with vectors afaik.
It would be nice to see a PDF there.

Re: A PDF for the gallery
The problem is that the vector format is a custom OWM format, so you have the ability to export as SVG but you don't get all of the map data that way.Balmung wrote: ↑Mon Mar 29, 2021 8:32 amThe gallery (https://www.otherworldmapper.com/gallery.html) contains only images, but OWM maps are created with vectors afaik.

Re: A PDF for the gallery
Since it's impossable to save/export in the demo and I found nothing regarding the export options ... what are the export options?

We should probably have some limited export available in the Demo. We'll give that some thought.
Meanwhile, export includes typical image formats and also SVG (with data loss) and an XML format (so you can use the file in other projects, e.g. a game).
Screen cap attached shows a lot of the options (Also, the details should be in the Help Document - accessible from the Help menu). Thank you!

The data loss relates to the Export Layers?

Re: A PDF for the gallery
It's not the layers, those are maintained. When we first started with OWM various aspects of our vector/raster blend weren't supported by plain SVG (texture flood fill, soft edge, etc) so that info isn't exported. We can look over it again in case we can find a match for more of our parameters in the SVG format.
The actual vector shapes are exported without loss though.
