Bill- I'm a retired architect, and I still do some architectural drawings, which I put on a CD and have printed at Electric Blueprint on Main Street.
At present I am working on a book, scheduled to be published next month, which contains about six or seven maps, that I created on VW, and am sending to my publisher. Some I printed out on my lazer and sent, and others I have sent email, without great success. But apparently I need to turn up the ppi on the VW export box.
