Hello,

I created some maps of Magnamund in SVG format. It is an open, vector-graphics (not rasterised, can be zoomed without loss of resolution) format.

The names are in French, but you can easily edit them yourself with Inkscape, www.inkscape.org/

They are a bit too large for the forum, so I provide disposable links (destroyed 60 days after the last download) :

general map: cjoint.com/?CCptW30ezxC
north-east (Kai series): cjoint.com/?CCptZWhCg84
Shadaki empire (World of Lone Wolf): cjoint.com/?CCpt057xeqv

Best regards.

Nice work! saw a fea misstake on the Magnamund map, Boradon is bigger than Bor so it looks like the citry is called Bor and the Country Boradon

also the southern Vassagonien border goes further down below the river.

SVG is supported in most browsers but IE7 doesn't have it native... unsure about IE8 but Ie9 got it. Firefox got SVG support since many years.

Thanks for the compliment and the remarks.

SVG is a W3C standard since... 1999, and it is a pity that the main OS editor did not include it so far, but, that's the way it is... You can download an addon to see them with IE I think.

With Inkscape, you can always export them as PDF, EPS (both vector graphics, no loss of resolution) or as PNG (you can choose the resolution), and even EMF (vector graphics for Microsoft Windows) to make them compatible with your favorite software.

Concerning the errors, I'll have a look at it.
