Title: Using Dungeonographer with MapTool
Post by: AnthonyRoberson on November 23, 2010, 09:56:36 AM
Does anyone know how to setup Dungeonographer so that the map I export will be in the proper scale for my tokens in MapTool?

I'd be happy to help you figure that out.  I don't know anything about MapTools' tokens though... so just guessing if those tokens are 100x100 pixels, and you want them to just barely fit in the square grid that is on top of Dungeonographer's maps:
You could set it to 300 dpi and then 3 squares per inch.  300/3 = 100.  So the squares will be 100x100 too. Which will mean that the tokens will basically touch each edge of the square if the token is centered.
If you want a bit more space around the token and the tokens are still 100x100,  then set it to 250dpi and 2 squares per inch. 250/2 = 125. So in this case the squares will be 125x125.

Does that help?  If not please point me to an example token(s) or post the specs.

Thanks! The default tokens are 128 X 128 so the second example is pretty close. Dungeonographer looks like it will make perfect maps for MapTool.
