Printing maps from PDF?
I did exactly as @Wyvern suggested -- dropping it into MS Publisher and then saving it as a PDF -- though I did so before seeing his recommendation. It worked just fine. I was worried that my image would resize when I pasted it in, but the printed page is indeed 1 square inch per grid.
I wonder what will happen to my version of MS Publisher when they discontinue it. I get it through my work, but I don't think we have Office as a software-as-a-service thing, so I think it may just stick around on my hard drive? I used to be pretty proficient with PageMaker and QuarkXPress, but these days tend to use MS PowerPoint of all things for simple layout stuff. I suppose I could get the hang of any desktop publishing software if I have to switch to something else.

Interesting Political Take on the Mercator Projection
@Wyvern, that early world maps link is awesome. I am in a Pathfinder campaign right now and my owl familiar is named Anaximander after the creator of the first mapper there. Love that his world map has Europe, Asia…and Libya.
@Quenten, love that orientation. When I designed my campaign world in FT, it didn’t look quite right…so I flipped it upside down. Sometimes things look better that way. Of course, now the latitudes in the northern hemisphere have negative numbers but I can deal with that.

Live tutorial suggestions
I just like seeing different techniques. Especially using a command in a way I've never thought of using it.
I agree, and every single video has something like that for me. Might be a command I’ve never heard of, or a creative use for a known command that I’ve never considered, or clever sheet effect settings. I need to get into the habit of making a note with the timestamp whenever that happens so I can revisit those sections later.
