Well, it's taken me a couple of evenings to produce that font, maybe 6
hours in total. If you have the hi-res scans for the lower-case
characters, then I could pull them into the existing font. The
difficulty will be "filling in the gaps" should we try to produce a full
upper and lower case typeface. Feel free to produce the scan and I'll
try to pull it together when I get some free time.

OK, because I had the time, I decided to be efficient and got all the other maps done and edited @ 1200dpi, chopping out everything but the labels: <http://www.projectaon.org/staff/simon/Hi-Res_Maps.zip>

Included in the zip is a text file explaining what needs doing with each. Otherwise I'll end up with pieces of paper with notes and reminders scribbled on them festooned over my desk, and I'll forget certain details while spamming the PA ML with duplicate sets of instructions! >_<

Anyone who wants to can try to make fonts from these; it's way outside my area, sadly. :-\
