Been playing with this nice mapset of the SE US (John M's). I would like to print some sections out, but ran in to a snag.
First, I can't figure out how to add Lat/Lon lines in Mapsource before printing. There doesn't seem to be an option for that in the Mapsource toolbar. These are options in the Delorme (streets) and Magellan softwares I do have. The Magellan software has topos which can do what I want, but these maps you guys made are nicer.
One other thing...when I see an area I want to cut and print the Map Tool (in the toolbar) won't allow cutting of small areas. It highlights the whole "quad" (if quad is the correct term) The one I tried to cut/print was small area. It was one my family's old hunting areas in a local National Forest. In this instance I don't need a huge map. Just an area a mile square.
Instead of Mapsource, try opening the .img file directly with GPSMapEdit: http://www.geopainting.com/en/
I'm pretty sure it has an option to show grid lines.

Thanks, Boyd. Will check it out ASAP.
