Can someone point me to an easy to use resource to create a map in a pdf file? For example, Discovery Park in Seattle is a great resource. It has Puget Sound on the west side, great trails, hidden ponds, a cultural center, a veteran's cemetery, playgrounds, a some of the best views of the Olympic Mountains. I'd like to produce a map that could be sent out showing what's offered. I could just grab a screen shot, but Mapnik doesn't show all of the amenities.
You could check out the Maperitive software (for Windows, or Linux with Mono) which allows you to save your map as SVG, and you can then make good PDFs from that. Maperitive has its own styling language and comes with a number of ready-made styles where you will probably have add extra rules for the details you care about.
