Where to find other maps?

On top of the 26 000 maps given for free by BeGraphic to business users (by writing your business email on the following Web page), you can find many other maps on the Web :

• http://www.powerpointmaps.com/
• http://atlas.nrcan.gc.ca/site/english/maps/reference
• http://www.lib.utexas.edu/maps/map_sites/outline_sites.html
• http://www.planiglobe.com/omc_set.html

Download them using the WMF format (or the new EMF format),
and put them in the folder :
C:\Program Files\BeGraphic\BeGraphic\Content\Maps

Explanation : WMF and EMF formats are the only vector formats supported by Microsoft Office.
A vector image is a mathematical shape that can be reduced or enlarged without loosing precision.
It is the opposite of "raster pictures" (e.g.: jpeg, gif...) that are made of millions of small colored dots.
