There are sites online where you can print your own hex-grid paper. You might be able to print a sheet (or several) and then draw the terrain by hand for your own GM reference. Just a thought.
I went to Incoptec to get some hex graph and figured I could take the pallet swatches and shrink and place. Of course that would require too much work that I'd rather not deal with.
My second idea, rather hard to explain, but would be to use one map and compress the data of each of the 9 (for argument's sake) sections into one small 8x11 in. Therefore, if the southwest map were composed of say 30% forests and a 10% water features I could take that section of map and "scale it down" taking a 5x5-6 hex square section of the overall map and detailing it to give a rough idea of what that areas terrain is like. Placing forest in 10 of those hexes and 3 hexes of water.
Also printing a landscaped multi-sheet playable surface map vs a small one paged demo map is done how? I see Save map image and save Multimap image, which as I'm looking at it is making me think I can get some of what I want even if done as a 2x2 map. I'd test it myself but my ink is empty #P
Final bit, has anyone ever taken their saved maps to Staples or any other company for printing and or laminating? Costs, quality?
