I just wanted to say that I printed out a very large map size at 2440mm x 1118mm ( roughly 8 foot x 4 foot) on a digital printed transparency with a matt laminate and it has turned out fantastic. The quality was amazing. I searched everywhere to see if it could upscale and could not find the answers. Hopefully this will help someone who is thinking of doing the same.
I have built a custom table with magnets sunken into the table to hold the map in place. I wanted to use the table to play other games so the map had to roll up.
I also wanted to use the table for Global War 1936 and the magnets work well

Hi, I tried to download and print this map, but he program says that the dimension is approx is slightly bigger that the OOB map.
Did I do something wrong ?
Where I can find, download a map for local printing in high resolution ?
I would pay for the dowload of a good map, that could give +30% of the original size
Any suggestion ?
Thanks -
@Marco-Luti, once you download the file, you need to tell the printer what dimensions you want to print it in by using “page setup” or some similar feature. Tjoek’s map files are super dense and easily support being blown up to twice the size of the OOB map or more.
At 400DPI, Tjoek’s files should printout at the size of the OOB map.
At 300DPI, you will get a +33.3% dimension boost, close to what you’re looking for.
At 200DPI, you will get a +100% dimension boost.
…and so on. Here’s another thread where I talk about printing (in this case it’s my overlays, but the info still applies)
DM me if you want to share specifics of what you’re looking for.
