    If you're not after a super high resolution version then taking a screenshot might be a short-term solution (Alt+PrintScreen saves the current window to the clipboard where you can paste it to other programs).
    Thanks for the reply but something funny just happened. I had a problem with FT so I reloaded it and as a test I tried to save with a grid. It saved no problem. I then downloaded the upgrade patch and tested it and it crashed every time. I reloaded without the patch and it saved the grid! LOL live and learn.
    Not a problem as I only want the coast and the grid, I do all the land by hand.

    The update available from the web site is not the same as the version that tech support can get you. Original Install < Update from PF (new toys + crashes with grids) < Beta from PF Tech support (more new toys + no crash with grids).

    Well I'm still doing the first map. I do it by hand so it will take a while. I'm also doing other things to go with it. I call it The Ubora Project. Along with Atlas Ubora I will also have History Ubora to have a detailed history of the world. To that end I have decided to make them PDFs. I can do a lot more with that then a web sight (Which I can't afford to get the space I need.

    Anyway, I have made a Compass Rose to go with the maps. What do you think?

    I like it, though the W's look more like upside down M's.

    Yes it does. I have an alternate that may help and I have just noticed a mistake in it so I have to do it again. Grrrrr. Not so bad. It doesn't take long to put together from scratch. Good chance for a bit more experimentation.

    OK after fixing some mistakes and the fonts I rebuilt it. I like this one much better.

    That looks really nice. I much prefer it to the last one you posted.

    I do too, though the original was good as well.

    Hm. Personally I prefer the first one, although it depends a bit on the style of the map. The second one is a bit too mechanical and polished for me.

    Actually that's what I was going for. The Ubora Project is laid out as if geographers and historians were cronicaling the history of their world from a modern point of view.
