Mapboards

RE: Mapboards
Thanks for the HexDraw link; I will take a look.

My questions:

1. I have a choice of scanning the existing map in sections and then stitching the sections together before I increase the map size, or simply starting from scratch. Which technique gives better results? Time is not an issue.

2. I typically print PnP maps to heavy cardstock which I then glued to Readi foam poster boards. While there is a little bending of the board over time, I like the results when the board is 11"x17" or smaller. I doubt this technique will work with such a large map however as I would expect a lot more noticeable bending of the board. Any recommendations of how to have a somewhat rigid backing? Or should I stay away from rigid backing?

Thanks!
