Are there any commercial or freely distributable map graphics files? I am looking for high quality maps down to the state or county level suitable for integration into desktop publishing documents. Color is not necessary, just good line drawings.

Public Brand Software (800-426-3475) offers two map disk sets in MS-DOS format. Three disks of world map data are described as follows: Over 100,000 points for mpaping the world. Contains latitude and longitude of geographical borders and coastlines. Arranged into continents, the points go down to as close as 1 mile apart. This would be good data for a fairly simple graphics program. The major difficulty would be in programming the projection system you choose to use. Note that this data is useful for large-scale mapping only. A single disk of US map data is described as follows: As above, over 15,000 points for mapping the U. S. A. Contains latitude and longitude of geographical borders and coastlines for the 48 contiguous states and D. C. You could transfer the files to AmigaDOS format with the PCCopy utilities on your extras disk. --Fabbian Dufoe 350 Ling-A-Mor Terrace South St. Petersburg, Florida 33705 813-823-2350 UUCP: ...uunet!pdn!jc3b21!fgd3

Are there any iff images or brushes of maps of Europe and Asia avialable. Either commercial or public domain would be suitable. Thanks. Richard Foy
