In Linux it is fairly easy: Use Osmarender (XML or Perl-Version) and convert your .osm to an svg. Either import that to Illustrator or convert the svg to pdf using inkscape (or anything else of course, but inkscape does pretty well since 0.46, using cairo to export to pdf). I'm experimenting with this at the moment but I think I'll post some links to PDFs some time soon.

Unfortunatly the version as released will not give you the ability to actually save that svg. But it would be trivial to add such a thing. Contact the merkaartor mailing list if you are interested and I am sure we can help you quickly. cu bart ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk

To get a nice looking map in the zoom level you want you will need to do some more reading than this: On MacOSX you should be able to do this in the terminal: ## Download osmarender curl -O http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/osmarender6/osmarender.xsl curl -O http://svn.openstreetmap.org/applications/rendering/osmarender6/osm-map-features-z17.xml ## Download OSM data curl http://www.openstreetmap.org/api/0.5/map?bbox=17.99,59.3,18.0,59.31 sthm-map.osm ln -s sthm-map.osm data.osm ## Render to SVG xsltproc --path . --path ./symbols osm-map-features-z17.xml map.svg That gives you a SVG of an area where a lot of the swedish OSM:ers have lived. -- /emj ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk
Re: [OSM-talk] Easy way to export to Illustrator?
Hi, I don't see why there isn't an OSM to SVG converter webservice, Cool, then start one. (Or, to be just a little bit more verbose - depending on the input it takes a hell of a lot of CPU time to render an area with Osmarender, even if yo uhave the CPU all to yourself. If you have multiple users accessing the web service, everything will grind to a halt. It can be done with the new-found Mapnik SVG output. Tom Hughes is working on an export tab for our web page that - according to the little bits of info he's dropped on these lists about it - might include a Mapnik-generated SVG output of a selected area. No idea about the planned release schedule though!) Bye Frederik ___ talk mailing list talk@openstreetmap.org http://lists.openstreetmap.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/talk

Re: [OSM-talk] Easy way to export to Illustrator?
A PDF-exporter sounds great! And for Illustrator even better! Would that be for the rendered files or for the data? I guess both would be valuable but a data dump to PDF is what I really need. :) Is it going to be a plug for JOSM or Potlatch? Layers? Tags? Until then I found out an somewhat easy way to do it (wont give you any fancy stuff like the tags or leyers etc): - Export GPX-file from JOSM - Upload it to http://www.gpsvisualizer.com/ and choose SVG as target file type - Import the SVG-file into Adobe Illustrator - All ways will be segmented.
