I mostly use Adobe Illustrator to create my maps
Sometimes I will edit them in Photoshop adding textures etc
The main advantage of Illustrator is its scalability, freeform design methodology and its powerful editing capability
The main disadvantage I have is that I cannot find any outline .EPS symbol sets for fantasy map making
So I have to make most of them myself
This is rather tedious and time consuming
If anyone has any idea where to get vector fantasy symbol sets please let me know
Thanks
