Production norms: Odd sized maps.

[Malk_Content]

I know its too late for quite a few products in the future, but having had this problem converting materials to roll20 for the entire playtest, and now having trouble again porting stuff for a altered Fall of Plaguestone game I have a simple request.

Please stop printing maps with partial squares. The partial squares on each edge means that instead of just copy pasting the image into roll20 (or any vtt with a snap to grid feature) I have to instead load up an image editor, delete extraneous non squares, often times find that it is impossible to tell if an entire edge of the map has full squares or not and then try edit those out before finally resizing the whole image to put into the tabletop. It is a massive pain for what I can't see as any gain at all and turns what would me minutes of prep into ten or more minutes per map.

Doesn't Roll20 have a feature to shift the grid manually? Should take a couple seconds to line it up by eye within Roll20, with no image editing required....

EDIT- found a tutorial: https://wiki.roll20.net/Aligning_Maps

I'm not sure what the problem is here. Every PF1 map I've ever extracted and added to my Roll20 campaign has involved some amount of alignment to get it matching the grid exactly. I never need an image editor to do so, just a minute or two of fiddling to get it right.

(In Roll 20, just hold alt as you move or resize the image and it won't snap to grid)

My problem is when extracting the images from PDF’s I sometimes have to rescale the maps in order to make the squares actually square.

The caves map in Hellknight Hill are an example of this. I just wish there was an option for each individual map image in full res to be available. I’d gladly even pay money for it.
