Reply to "Electronic map file size"

pastmemberMember

My contention: if the original map is NOT garbage, the state certifier can readily get it into the right format, whether hand-drawn or digitally-created. I do not know if a new tutorial is required to do this. If so, it seems to me it will be short and simple. My old $95.00 scanner allows me to convert any hand-drawn map into a PDF of the right size for Web display (or any other size) and the right margin size for printing.

For maps submitted as .PNGs, JPGs, or in any other electronic format, is is usually easy to modify the size and formatting. Just open any .PNG, .JPG, Bitmap, .TIFF or .GIF with Microsoft Office Picture Manager or any other basic image manipulator to adjust the size, resolution and margins. Then use any free PDF creator to save the image as a PDF. With some free PDF creators, you can adjust the image to the desired formatting without the Picture Manager step.
