Slitting a Map

mike0liver

A map I have just made for an upcoming military history book does not display in sufficient detail when sized to fit the book page. Consequently, I need to convert it to two maps by splitting it just about half way down. Then the resulting two maps can be enlarged to fit the book page and display more detail - I'll just have two maps where I only had one.

The thing I want to know is: how can I achieve this with a minimum of fuss?

Cheers,

Mike

Export and do it in Photoshop. While it may be technically feasible, there is no benefit to doing this within CC3, IMO.

Thanks; I don't have Photoshop but I do have PSP and I guess I can do it in that - it sounds like doing it in CC3 might involve a fair amount of fuss :-)

You can export as two rectangular bmps.

Then import one into CC3, redraw the map using the bmp as a guide.

Do the same for the other bmp.

The one on large map to small. The same method can be used to make two maps out of one large one.
