Thread: Request for world maps - paid

    Default Request for world maps - paid

    Hi

    This is an RFQ for two maps for a book interior.
    I have drafts posted in my name, Ray Strong here at Cartographer's Guild.
    https://www.cartographersguild.com/s...archid=3848351

    They need to be B&W with text readable in a paperback size.
    Any bids for how much this would cost?

    You may want to check your link as it appears to go to a 'sorry - no matches' page.

    you really need to provide a lot more information than that

    all we know is 2 black and white planet maps

    line , as in ink, drawing ?
    or a B&W photo type , both can be done for a book

    you size "paperback size" really has ZERO meaning

    WHAT dose your publisher / printer want ?
    150 dpi , 300dpi , or 600 dpi ?

    OK, try these for links to the maps

    Hopefully I'm speaking with people who know more about this than I do,
    and will rely on your expert guidance to make sure it is readable on a kindle/eBook reader.
    Not photograph quality, but readable and entertaining to look at as many of the posted maps.
    I mentioned B&W, because it will end up as a paperback.

    I can scale images with Gimp.
