<path> elements.1.33350873. Fix: scale all coordinates.<defs>/<style> and CSS classes. Fix: replace with inline stroke/fill attributes.Run the bundled script:

INPUT-fixed.svg (same directory)1.33350873--no-scale: only split compound paths and clean styles, skip scaling--scale 1.5: use custom scale factor| Use case | Layer | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Board outline | Edge.Cuts | Hole = actual cutout in PCB |
| Silkscreen logo | F.Silkscreen | KiCad draws strokes, not fills |
| Copper shape | F.Cu | Use filled zones instead |
If the script doesn't cover a specific case:
pip install svg2mod
svg2mod -i input.svg -o output.kicad_mod
Converts SVG directly to KiCad footprint (.kicad_mod), handles holes better than native SVG import.
