Hi All,

Our department is contemplating the purchase of MP in the very near future and I am wondering if the group has any resource book recomendations.

Thanks in advance,

As there are a lot of MAPublisher users in this forum I am sure that some of them will offer their recommendations and responses but in the meantime you may wish to have a look at our documentation and tutorial guides which can be found here: http://www.avenza.com/documentation
And of course, feel free to contact our Toronto office at 800-884-2555 if you have any particular questions.

Hi Ted,

Thanks very much!

Will do.

I'm not aware of any MP specific publications but I can tell you that the included users guide and tutorial are very helpful. They also have a resources blog with helpful tips and techniques (http://www.avenza.com/resources/blog).

  • Interests:I am a Cartographer with varied experience. I work primarily as a freelancer. In my freelancing career I have worked with Maps.com, Designmaps.com, 3dmaps and various other map making and cartography sites.

    I have varied software experience, however I use almost all the Cartography and quite a few GIS software, Illustrator, Freehand, Adobe Photoshop and Mapinfo to be precise. I have also worked on Microstation and other Intergraph software including Stereo Photogrammetry on ZI Photo Suites. The other software that I utilize for various other tasks specially 3D realism are Global Mapper and Maprenderer 3D.

    Global mapper is a versatile software for various conversion and I found Maprenderer 3D for producing stunning 3D images from height data.

    I am available for freelance work, right from mundane line digitisation to Illustrator / Freehand Cartography. Just send me a mail at promapper@gmail.com

Hi

It is a fantastic software as I had an opportunity to learn its basics with the trial version and many thanks to Hans for providing me the video tutorials. These tutorials are a must if you want a self learning crash course in MP. These are available at http://www.avenza.co...training-videos

I dream to purchase the software but it is hugely expensive. Anyway I found that if one becomes a Member of IMTAmaps.org, then they offer the software for $999, a saving of almost 30 percent. But again LabelPro is not available on discount. But even without LabelPro the software is a must, if you want to import GIS data into Illustrator.

Avenza, don't you have some discount scheme in the offing, so that freelance mapping professionals who do not have huge budgets could also buy MP and LabelPro.
