However, you will often need to open the svg file in a text editor afterwards, to comply with the following rules. Only two rules must be followed: Base rules • One pixel = one millimeter. You can have the page size specified inside the opening tag, either without units or with 'mm'. For example, these two forms are valid: width='1067mm' height='762mm' or width='1067' height = '762' Although svg supports inches ('42 in'), these are currently not supported by FreeCAD, so it's always better to have your svg page size specified in millimeters. The 'viewBox' attribute must have the same value, for example: viewBox='0 0 1067 762' • You must insert, somewhere inside your svg code, where you want the contents of the drawing to appear (for example at the end of the file, just before the last tag), the following line.

This text above (which is actually an XML comment) must be on a separate line, and not embedded in the middle of other pieces of text. Beware that if you reopen and resave your template in inkscape, after adding the above line, inkscape will keep the line, but will add other xml elements on the same line, causing the template to not work anymore. You will need to edit it with a text editor and isolate the comment above on its own line again.

Namespace • Several objects (specifically those created with the command and if your template has editable texts) use a special specific to FreeCAD. This makes FreeCAD able to detect specific items inside svg files, that other applications will just ignore. If you plan to use any of these, you must add this line inside the opening tag, for example together with the other xmlns lines added by inkscape: xmlns:freecad=' Title block In addition to these rules, since FreeCAD 0.14, information about the Border and Title block can be added to the template for use by the orthographic projection tool. This information defines where FreeCAD can, and can not place the projections.
