I can't draw a straight line with a ruler - Help I need to draw a map?

[Katymac]

So which package should I use

I guess I could do a table in Excell or word & just delete the borders as necessary

But I'm sure there must be a better way

Any ideas??

If I don't get too many replies - I might try posting in Geeky stuff

what does the map have to be of?

Directions to my house

So 2 main roads - major landmarks

But really a line drawing - so very simple

Can't you print it out off multimap ??

You can also do directions and proint them off - postcode to postcode ! Really easy - it's what I alwasy do for visitors !

There is too much detail

I want it to be simple and elegant to go in my new brochure

KatyMac - CAT me - I'll do it for you, how hard can it be, I have Illustrator and Photoshop and used to work in design many moons ago.

Really??

That's very kind of you

I'll send my (very bad) drawing (which is vertical & needs to be horizontal)

Plus the page on multimap (which will make more sense)

Thank you

Yeah no problem, it'll take me till tomorrow though, will have to put DD to bed before I get any peace!

Oh and let me know what format you want it in.

Duh???

How would I know what format I want it in

I will be putting it into a word document

Really appreciate it

Okay, well we'll go for a JPEG then

If you are printing this professionally you might want to make it into a PDF so you don't look font info during transfer.....

Oh look email me, we'll figure it out together!

I did already

Now I need to work out how thick card - my computer will print on

Depends on the printer, but you should be fine up to 400 gsm.

The printer can take quite thick card.....I tried
