Hey folks! It’s a flat .tif file created in photoshop, just a high resolution file. Any reasonably functional photo viewing / editing program should be able to successfully work with it.
The file was created on a Apple system, but that shouldn’t affect anything. I know it’ll open with the default image viewing software on a Mac. It appears to open fine in Windows Photo Viewer on my Windows 7 system as well.
I can definitely create a .png version. I honestly don’t know why I chose .tif. Maybe out of habit. Maybe some of the difficulty some users have had were due to the fact that it was in CMYK before. CMYK is generally better for printing, so I would recommend the original .tif, if possible, if you intend on printing it out.

I have put the map on my google drive under the zip 1940 board LT coming in at 133MB and a resolution of 21600x9900. I have not attempted to print this map yet and will probably need tips on how to do so. Hope you enjoy.
