It seems to work okay with battlemaps, but it’s not going to perform miracles with low-resolution maps. The maps in Paizo’s PDFs are very low resolution, especially if you want to use them at scale. See below for a comparison.I extracted the maps from the PDF using [ICODE]pdfimages[/ICODE] (from the <a href="https://poppler.freedesktop.org" target="_blank">Poppler</a>) and upscaled them to scale. The left side was done using a simple bilinear filter in Affinity Photo (assuming that your printer doesn’t do anything more sophisticated). The right side was upscaled using [ICODE]waifu2x-converter-cpp[/ICODE]. I also included a photo of a printout with minis for scale (featuring Valeros, Seoni, Harsk, Ezren, and Kyra versus Sorshen and Aldern Foxglove).</blockquote>
