How to convert odg to svg file

Converting an ODG (OpenDocument Graphics) file to an SVG (Scalable Vector Graphics) file is straightforward. Below are step-by-step instructions for using LibreOffice Draw, the most common tool for handling ODG files.

Download and install LibreOffice

  1. Go to the official LibreOffice website and download LibreOffice.
  2. Select the appropriate version for your operating system (Windows, macOS, or Linux).
  3. Download the installer and follow the on-screen instructions to complete the installation.

Open the ODG file in LibreOffice Draw

  1. Open the LibreOffice application suite.
  2. Select "Draw" from the list of available applications.
  3. In LibreOffice Draw, click on File in the top menu.
  4. Select Open from the dropdown.
  5. Browse to the location of your ODG file, select it, and click Open.

Export the ODG file as an SVG

  1. Once the ODG file is open, click on File in the top menu.
  2. Select Export from the dropdown menu (not to be confused with Save As).

Configure export settings:

  1. In the export dialog that appears, choose the location where you want to save the SVG file.
  2. From the Save as type dropdown menu, select SVG - Scalable Vector Graphics (*.svg).

Complete the export:

  1. Enter a name for your SVG file in the File name field.
  2. Click Save to export your ODG file as an SVG.

Verify the SVG image

  1. Navigate to the folder where you saved the SVG file.
  2. To ensure the conversion was successful, open the SVG file using a web browser or a vector graphics editor (like Inkscape).

Adjust the SVG file if necessary

Fine-tune the SVG:

  1. If the SVG file doesn't look as expected, you may need to tweak the file using a vector graphics editor like Inkscape.
  2. Open the SVG in Inkscape, make the necessary adjustments, and save the final version.
