Viewing with a new Tablet problems.
So here's what's going on. I've been using CC3 to create some new maps for my upcoming campaign next semester. Just a few weeks ago I purchased a new Tablet computer (an Acer Iconia a500) that runs on Android 3.0. I'm trying to find a way to view my maps that are in a FCW format on my tablet. The only CAD app that I have found can only read .dwg files, and won't accept a fcw file. I tried to convert my .fcw file into a .dwg file, but almost everything but the continent outlines were taken off in the conversion. So, my question is, do you guys know of any work around to converting and keeping my full design, or at least know of any android apps or a future plan to create one?
I know I can just save it as an Image file and see it as a .jpg, but my problem is that it won't be very good quality and I would like to be able to zoom in and see certain areas more close up. Here's a demo of my map:

Unless you can get virtualization software for android, the only way to go is image export (I would prefer .png over .jpg), or PDF export (Install a free PDF virtual printer, and print your maps to PDF format). Remember that you can export images at a rather large resolution, which means that even if you do not have the almost unlimited zoom feature of CC3, you can still zoom in quite a bit. The image size is going to get a bit large in comparison to the .fcw file, but remember the .FCW fomat requires a lot of artwork files that lives in your CC3 install, files which you also would need to transfer over to be able to see a CC3 map on the device. PDF export can also give quite decent results.
