I know that you didn't ask, but... if you plan to contribute these tracings to OpenStreetMap, that map scan must be from a permitted source. That would include maps that have expired copyright (50 years after the death of the author according to Canadian copyright law), or a map licensed to you to permit tracing / derivation. If this is a permitted source, please add it to the imports catalogue, with the details. http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Import/Catalog > QUESTIONS > ========== > > Has anyone used this plugin? > Can you give me reasonably correct values for my world file? > Do I need to create a projection file > What do I need to do to make this work? I've not used this plugin, but perhaps we can all work through this together. Does your map tell you what projection and scale it is drawn in? That might be important.
