MI Printer memory

2000-04-11 Thread Steve Halsall


This is not strictly a MapInfo question but perhaps someone can help.

I have a HP1050C printer which has 32Mb memory which has been adequate for most of the 
maps that have been printed. There have been occasions where difficulties have arisen 
when printing detailed A1 or A0 size maps (with raster backgrounds). I understand that 
the printer can be upgraded to resolve the problems by either adding more memory or by 
adding a hard disk drive (or both). The question is, which would be most cost 
effective? What benefits does the hard disk option give over the additional memory 
option?

Any help would be appreciated.

RE: MI Irish Street data

1999-09-21 Thread Steve Halsall




Another alternative source to OS for irish data is a company called Iris.

The contact there is Neil Barry, he can be emailed on
[EMAIL PROTECTED] or phoned on 00353 1662 5737.

Alternatively you can look at their web site:  http://www.iris-gis.com

I've spoken to people with a range of experiences regarding data from OS
Ireland so it may be worth giving Neil a try.


Regards


Steve

 Subject: MI Irish Street data

 Hello Mappers,

 This is yet another data request. I was wondering If anyone has come
 across a good source for street data in Ireland.  We need street data for
 five cities (Sligo, Monaghan, Navan, Rocrea, and Tralee).  Thanks in
 advance for any assistance you can provide.

MI colour/greyscale raster

1999-08-10 Thread Steve Halsall

Hi

I am using the UK Ordnance Survey 1:50,000 raster mapping (tif format) with their 
Boundary Line product. The tif map tiles are in colour which is great for when I want 
to view an area. However I am mainly interested in the boundaries (from Boundary Line) 
and just need the raster mapping for reference. For printing purposes I change the 
raster image to greyscale and change the contrast and brightness to about 70% using 
the Adjust Image Style option in Mapinfo. This produces the output that I want but 
unfortunately it appears to make this change to the raster map rather than in the 
MapInfo table or the Workspace. This causes problems as the next time I open the 
raster map it may not be in the format that I require.

The only solution I have come up with is to copy the raster tiles (84 of them!) and 
rename them, then I will have to rename the relevant MapInfo registration tables (and 
edit them to point to the correct raster file). I can then use both sets of raster 
maps within MapInfo switching them off and on as required.

Before I go ahead I would like to ask list members if they have found an easier way?
