I use a Mac, and there is a great piece of software called <a href="http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnigraffle/" target="_blank">OmniGraffle</a>; Photoshop, Viso, Illustrator or some other graphic design program should work. I turn on its grid, stretch the scanned map to fit, and then everything lines up nicely.Step 3: I have a grid layer (w/ the locked map and the grid key), a hidden monster layer, and an everything else layer. Each token is a black circle with 75% opacity and a bold, shadowed letter. I just move things around as appropriate.Step 4: Export at as an image.Setting it up takes a bit (but I had some time between Ravenloft coming out and when I actually started), but it is sure pretty. <img src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/joypixels/assets/8.0/png/unicode/64/1f642.png" class="smilie smilie--emoji" loading="lazy" width="64" height="64" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)"  data-smilie="1"data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
