Hi Oliver,
I'm also still using QLandkarte because I hadn't figured out how to
convert .img files into something that QLandkarteGT can use too. I'd
just assumed it was functionality that you'll get around to at some
point...
I'd always thought that the .img files were 'real Garmin maps', so what
are they really?
Is the process to take a .img file and convert it to 'a real Garmin map'
documented somewhere?
Thanks,
Andrew McMillan.
