Import it back into CorelDRAW, upgroup the SVG object, then delete the white background. Afterwards, select all the items you would like to export to SVG, and use the File>Export command (checking all the options carefully) to export to SVG.

'''Article(s):''' [[Mayan languages]], [[Guatemala]]
'''Request:''' The image is not currently in FAC [[Mayan languages]] because there is uncertainty as to its copyright status. making a new .svg version with a better color key would solve that. [[User:Circeus|Circeus]] 21:46, 3 March 2007 (UTC)

I gave it a try. I could not read some of the labels, but now should be easy to add/correct them. [[User:Chabacano|Chabacano]] 19:44, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
:I was thinking that it would be clearer with a labelled color chart on the sides instead of having the labels inside the map.[[User:Circeus|Circeus]] 20:46, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
:And there's a spot missing near the edge of the lake on the right, which corresponds to the rightmost label ("Garuna" or something like that).[[User:Circeus|Circeus]] 20:54, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
::almost all of the language names are completely incorrect in the image to the left.[[User:Maunus|·Maunus·]] [[User talk:Maunus|·Æ·]] 21:07, 5 March 2007 (UTC)
:::It would be useful to know the correct names to do this map... [[User:Chabacano|Chabacano]] 08:31, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
::::They all appear in the articles on [[mayan languages]] and [[languages of Mesoamerica]] and [[Guatemala]][[User:Maunus|·Maunus·]] [[User talk:Maunus|·Æ·]] 09:24, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
:::::Please look at the rightmost image (added), above, to correct most of the names - too many errors to list here, though "Nqxn" for Mopan really takes the cake. That other image is actually superior for [[Mayan Languages]] for several reasons (extends beyond Guatemala, doesn't include the two non-mayan languages, gives an idea of speaker populations and of language branches). I agree that the center image here would be useful for Guatemala, better geographic precision, but it might be nice to base the language colors here on variations of the colors in the rightmost Mayan Languages image. Missing entirely for the center image here are the labels Q'eqchi (the large upper green patch), Garifuna (a non-mayan Yoruba/Arawak language, a very small coastal strip extending west and then north from where the river hits the Atlantic coast near the (north)east concave corner. Does NOT extend west again along the Belize border to the main concave corner. The original, leftmost map puts it incorrectly ''east'' of the rivermouth.) and Q'anjob'al (the blue just west of Q'eqchi.). --[[User:Homunq|Homunq]] 12:41, 6 March 2007 (UTC)
::::::Oh, thanks. This new image is much easier to decipher than the previous bunch of pixels. I fixed some things (or at least I hope that). For doing that re-coloration based on the image in the rightmost I need to know where Poqomchi is (now has not assigned zone), and which color should have "Papti" (or "Popti", "Papli" or whatever name it has).

'''Article(s):''' [[Metabolism]]
'''Request:''' Could somebody convert this to SVG format please? Also, if there is any way to reduce the file size, that would be great as well. The high-resolution version is [http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/en/5/5f/Metabolic_pathways.png here]. Thanks. [[User:TimVickers|TimVickers]] 20:45, 5 March 2007 (UTC)

I've reduced the dimensions of the file to have their original values (which I don't think loses much) and converted it to an indexed colour PNG which gets the filesize down to 254KB from 1.17MB. I've also created a smaller but completely lossless version of the original (1.17MB to 975KB) by using PNG filters, and I've overwritten the original with the smaller version. I hope that helps with the filesize issue. [[User:Time3000|Time3000]] 18:35, 7 March 2007 (UTC)
:Great, thank you very much. [[User:TimVickers|TimVickers]] 22:24, 10 March 2007 (UTC)

'''Article(s):''' [[Grand Duchy of Finland]]
'''Request:''' Hard one I belive, but if someone is interested in herardly... The current CoA in the article is wrong as it has the Russian eagle and looks bad, as drawn with Paint.. The first image I attached is what it should be, too bad the image is very bad quality. Also, it has errors, see the 3rd image the big CoA of the Russian Empire, it's on the bottom right. It should be the correct one.
We already had a CoA based on the 1973 CoA of Finland: [[:Image:GD Finland coa.png]] but it obviously looks wrong when compared to the one in the Russian Empire's large CoA [[:Image:Russian Empire's Big Coat of Arms.jpg]] [[User:Pudeo|Pudeo]] ([[User_talk:Pudeo|''Talk'']]) 13:28, 31 March 2007 (UTC)
'''Edit:''' [http://tinypic.com/view.php?pic=2gvvjhd Here] is quite high reso image of the CoA, only drawn with one color though. But it shows the shapes very well..
