OCAD: Export Map Overlay

1min
  • This can be done either by exporting a section of the base map or taking one of the course maps and hiding all of the course setting features (e.g. controls, etc) (F4 will do that)
  • File -> Export
  • Choose GIF (preferred as it's smaller) or PNG format
  • Resolution: 300dpi
  • Ensure "Create World File" has a check beside it
  • Check "Part of map" and ensure that the bounds selected cover the map for all courses
  • Hit export
  • Click OK to the warning about having the controls hidden (if doing it that way)
  • Select "All controls" in the next box (just because you have to select something - but they are hidden so it doesn't matter)
  • Choose a location - it will create 2 files - either .gif+.gfw or .png+.pgw
  • You should be able to open the image in any image viewer to check that it looks OK and doesn't contain any controls or course lines
