many thanks for looking, TML has come through again!

I did consider that, but it would mean learning how to do it which, with everything else going on in my head at the moment, just started to make me whimper. It’s probably really easy and I’m determined to do it one day (if only so I can see the sector I created by hand back in 1980 or so done ‘properly’), but not this week.
That does remind me though, is it possible to make a poster of something that is not a sector? e.g. a subsector or a user defined area such as, in this case, subsectors N and O of Spinward Marches and B and C of Trojan Reach? I’ve had a quick look on TravellerMap and can’t see a way of doing it as the ‘Poster’ button only appears with a search for a sector as far as I can see.

Definitely. I was vaguely surprised I didn’t have it as I saved all the Online JTAS articles as they came out (and thus have the three that didn’t make the CD-ROM) and I attempted to save all the ‘links off’ as well – but must have missed that one. Or maybe put the file in a stupid place I couldn’t find. Either way, while you’re passing your ‘sad archivist’ qualifications, I evidently need to revalidate. :-)
In any case, a huge thanks to those who’ve helped. I really enjoyed reading Hans’ setting and ‘exploring’ that neck of the woods in the 400s and now, with a decent map, am definitely inclined to take it to TravCon if I can’t face more ‘Scenes from the Traveller Adventure’ or Andy is short of a referee for a slot.
Cheers
