Hello,
all possibilities to render maps as ebooks (or for print) that I
found were relatively limited (only raster images and/or limited
number of pages).
So I tried something new:

What do you think?
The idea is great. But before I download a 245MB PDF file: will Adobe
Acrobat or Foxit PDFreader load and display something like that without
problems? The most difficult PDF I have is a 4MB file of the french
railroad network (official RRF file), and a redraw after zooming or
panning takes a looong time. The inital draw is 20 seconds alone.
And does 3.4MB for only the coastline and the one major road not seem a
bit excessive? I think the data should be a bit simplified before you
make a PDF out of it.
But again: the idea as such is good.
Regards,
Maarten
