Ten things to do with your WOUK2000 CDROM:  

4: Image Maps
Explanation
You can export images from the MrSID™ viewer as TIF files. If you open these in your image viewer, you can annotate them and then print them out to provide an up-to-date map or guide to a particular area - eg if you are going on a country walk (few maps show up-to-date field boundaries).

Requirements

  • MMrSID™ (compatible with Windows95/98/00/NT and Power PC Macs)
  • Image viewer (downloadable from the web - search on 'image viewer' at your favourite search engine eg www.yahoo.com) that contains a toolbox of options such as 'Pen'
  • High quality printer

Steps

  1. Open the required image in the MrSID™ viewer
  2. Then export it to a TIF file on your hard disk
  3. Open this TIF file in your image viewer
  4. Use a 'Pen' tool (or similar) to mark a distinctive (red?) line along your route (such as a footpath or road)
  5. Now print this image
