    Default HELP - Anyone got a good world map???

    I am looking for a good (Xara) accurate world map which would allow individual countries to be selected and coloured/filled as desired. Does anyone have one that I could use?

    Many thanks.

    DAvid,

    Have you looked in the clipart folder under the geography subfolder? there are several world maps there. Depending on the the country of origin, maps will show different borders. So there is no "accurate" map you can color. Oh heck, within a country you can get maps showing different borders for the individual states.

    ... and here http://www.d80fotos.de/d80nef/worldmap_1.zip is a Xara file based on this map http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Image:BlankMap-World6.svg.
    svg file imported to Corel Draw, then saved as ai and imported into Xara.

    The file may need some rework and clean-up.
