Howdy! I’m needing some help with printing ratios. I had a bunch of large 3D maps I made back in the day (4" hexes), but had to leave them after a move. How are y’all printing these out? 8.5”x11” paper? 11x17” paper? What %?

Wanting to avoid 2" hexes and any kind of printing that would make it look tacky. Any help is appreciated!

The solution I came up with was creating a 28” document in Microsoft publisher and printing on four 11x17 sheets of paper. Will glue these together and laminate at Mardel. Is there a better way out there?

I have printed out larger maps utilizing some of the online vinyl banner companies. Upload and print your own files. Shop around and you can usually find a pretty good deal. I find they are more durable then the paper and lamination route.
