Brent -
I'm not quite sure it suits your needs, but have you looked at the dlgv32
viewer the USGS distributes at
http://mcmcweb.er.usgs.gov/drc/dlgv32pro/index.html ?
I haven't used it in a while, but it does offer graticule overlay,
large-format printing, and comes with a source distribution; I don't recall
the details of the source license, and my memory may be a bit weak on the
features. It's a Windows application and you can certainly download it and
give it a shot.
