Hello!
I have been reading the 5e content from the Core Rulebook and each Expansion. I am wanting to take the maps from the PDF files and combine them into one full map, such as the Rivendell map for example. The issue is that the map is split between two pages. I've used the software TokenTool to extract the map from the pdf but still cannot line them up perfectly. Is there a way to do this? Or is there a pdf of the full map somewhere?
Thanks.

Look in my catalog (Deviantart), I might have some maps that might interest you. Also, I must have at least 80-90 characters (mostly hobbits) useful for adventures.

You're looking for RIVENDELL. If I understand correctly, you're playing Lord of the Rings 5th Edition, not The One Ring 2nd Edition. I have the TOR Rivendell Expendium with a first (full) map on page 3 for the entire realm and on page 5 for a (full) map of Elrond's house.

What you can do is use software like Microsoft Office Publisher to reconstruct the image into a single, uncut image and then output a JPEG. You can then use AI to upscale the image to increase the resolution. I have all these tools (if you want my help, I'd be happy to).
Question: What kind of use do you want to make of these enlarged maps next? Will they be used to print a large map on a gaming table, or will they be used digitally with Foundry VTT compatibility? (If it's for Foundry VTT, I think you'll be a bit lacking in resolution, given what I'm doing.)

Thanks for the reply and for sharing your DeviantArt folder! I have access to Microsoft Publisher and will use that, then I may search for an AI to upscale resolution if needed (the other half of my issue while using other website based image editors).
To answer your question, I'm using the maps in digital format for my players to interact with using Owlbear Rodeo. I'm unfamiliar with Foundry VTT.
Also, if I do need more help, I'll ask. I appreciate the offer!

The Discord server has a channel where folks have uploaded maps.

Hey Andrew,The Discord server has a channel where folks have uploaded maps.

Where could I find the invite link to that discord? I believe the link you shared takes me to the channel if I were already in the discord.
Thanks.

Colt, when you have your image, private email me and then I will send you an email. You will be able to send me back your image-file and then I'll try to upscale it with my AI tools and send you back the result. On my DeviantArt, since I don't have a PRO account, all my images are not with the original resolution. If you want something, just ask and then I'll send you a real scale & resolution image.
