[QUOTE="Riley, post: 4777549, member: 12870"] Well, I actually print out the maps in 8x10 chunks and glue them down to construction paper - I don't have a projector, but I do have a refillable continuous ink supply jury-rigged to my inkjet printer. Makes great tabletop maps for cheap. Skipping the more involved process for achieving that... I created a layer on which I defined a grid of 1", and choose the 'snap to grid' option. I then chose a pen tool (or some such tool) in a color and a circular brush diameter (100% hardness) which was visible but not too overwhelming for the maps underneath. I then started to draw a line - but gave it zero length - starting at each of the grid reference points. Eventually, I had an 8x10 grid of little dots that I now just paste over whatever map I'm printing. Hope that makes sense. There's probably an easier way to do it, but I have little photoshop skill.
