Posted by thumpu77 Converting Mapscource file to paper maps I know this sounds like backwards thinking, but I am going to be leading my car club on a fun run in a few weeks. Some of them have Garmin GPS's, others have different brands of GPS's, while others have no GPS at all. I need to get the route plan out to as many of them as possible in case a red light or something else seperates the group. I have my route all mapped out on Garmin Mapscource. Saved it as a .gdb. Tested it on my 1490T and it works good there. Tried downloading it to someone else's 255 and couldn't get it to work (another topic for another thread) What I would like to do now is convert it to: A) a format that is easily downloadable to work on as many different types of GPS units as possible and B) A Hard copy map w/ turn by turn directions to hand out to the old-school drivers. I'm sorry if this has been discussed already, my searches keep yeilding ways to convert POIs but not routes. I don't want the other people's GPS's to find the 'best route', I want them to take my route. TIA for any sugestions, methods, software downloads, etc that may help. |
