    Map of Muden

    I really din't know, I was pretty confused by the ".pdf". All I know is that
    it's an acronym for picture data file.

    I am not sure about the map, but I think I read that TSR scanned it. That
    makes me think that they have drawn it by hand (like they've done with all
    other maps) and then scanned it.

    However, the sourcebook (muden.pdf) was written in a desktop publishing
    program called Quark. I've never seen it for the PC, but I've used it for
    the Mac. If you look at the file in the Acrobat viewer, you can check the
    properties. There it says who wrote it and which program they used.

    Map of Muden

    Your idea about formatting the Bithright maps in the Muden format is the
    same as mine ! I think it would be a huge hit if WotC/TSR were to publish
    a CD with the various game worlds maps in this form, with an editor
    attached; so that the DM could add castles / cities / roads / ruins, etc
    ..

    I wonder who we could address this question too, to see about its viability
    ?

    What do y'all think ? Would you buy such a product ?

    Sweet water and light laughter until next !

    Unfortunatly e-mails, and petitions, don't work well when dealing with a
    company. If you want to get any notice you should write *individual
    snail-mails* and send them to TSR. E-mails and petitions are too easily
    faked so most companies don't rank them highly when determining new product
    lines. When Dark Sun was "put to sleep" TSR specifically requested
    snail-mails from anyone who wanted to keep the line alive, it was made
    clear that e-mails, and petitions just wouldn't cut it. So if you really
    want to see this product let them know, the old-fashion way. But everyone
    who wants to see this CD should send in their own letter, and keep your
    fingers crossed.
