To add an SVG image to a LaTeX file, you can use the svg package.

Here are the steps:

  1. Install dvisvgm package if you don't have it installed. This package converts the SVG image to a format that LaTeX can use.

  2. Load the svg package in your LaTeX document by putting \usepackage{svg} in your preamble.

  3. Insert the SVG image using the \includesvg command in your document. For example, to include an SVG image named "example.svg" located in the same directory as your LaTeX document, use \includesvg{example}.

  4. Compile your LaTeX document with the shell escape command. You can do this by running pdflatex -shell-escape yourfile.tex in your terminal.

  5. View your PDF document.

Here is an example:

\documentclass{article}
\usepackage{svg}

\begin{document}

\includesvg{example}

\end{document}

Note: The svg package only works with PDFLaTeX or LuaLaTeX. If you are using XeLaTeX, you may use the svg-extract package instead.
