## Saving the map
If you like the current map you probably want to save it for a later use. There are 5 saving options:
* _Save as .map_. It is an internal file format that stores all the map data including your manual changes. The file can be directly into the Generator and is used to proceed with the map creation. It's highly recommend to save the map you are working on at least every 30 minutes.
* _Save to machine_. It is an internal file format that stores all the map data including your manual changes. The file can be directly into the Generator and is used to proceed with the map creation. It's highly recommend to save the map you are working on at least every 30 minutes.
* _Save as .png_. It makes a screenshot of the currently displayed map fragment. Just an image and nothing more. The png resolution can be set in the _Options_ tab. By default it is 5x of the map size. The file can be opened and edited in any image editor.
* _Save as .svg_. It is a vector image that can be rescaled to any size without quality loss. The Generator naturally renders maps in svg and hence saving as svg is faster than saving as png. To just open and view a saved file it's recommended to use your browser, not a vector images editor. To edit the file you need special software the most common variants are _Inkscape_ (free) and _Illustrator_ (proprietary).
* _Save as .json_. It allows to export map data in format used in GIS software.
