+Pattern file for forests is generated in two steps.
+
+In the first step visit [jsdotpattern (command sequence is recorded)](http://www.imagico.de/map/jsdotpattern.php#x,512,jdp6894;g,30,32,32;s,jdp33742;s,jdp81637;rx,250,2,32,32;s,jdp28824;s,jdp59702;s,jdp91550;s,jdp27774;rx,250,2,64,64;rd,1,0,0,tree%20pair,1,5,5,0,jdp52898,6b8d5e,add19e;)
+
+Generate file - use "render (px aligned)" followed by using "get pattern SVG data" (it is expected that background will be transparent, background colour in jsdotpattern is only for display).
+
+Generated SVG image is present in this folder (forest.svg).
+
+Due to limitations of Mapnik it is impossible to use this svg file.
+
+Currently used workaround is to export png file (this image is used in rendering).
