Tyler, The general issue (also exists in QGIS) is that grid/graticule creators commonly only create nodes where 2 lines intersect. The solution generically is that you need to increase the node density of each line so that there are more points to bend the line along when projected.
As an example (or perhaps a solution) you can see my script that creates such dense lines. It's a python script to create WGS 84 dense lines that re-project well at world scales. I've written it to be standalone, or it's available in QGIS Processing, you could also adapt it to GRASS since it's pure python and writes a geojson file (ogr can read that). https://github.com/wildintellect/pyGraticule Enjoy, Alex On 02/05/2016 11:08 AM, Tyler Smith wrote: > Hi, > > I'm making a map for inclusion in a manuscript.
