Historical Map making programs - jonnymacbrown - 04-26-2025 Does anybody know anything about programs for use in making ordinary maps (not wargaming maps). For example a map of Imperial Germany. I want to draw a map and insert it into a Word doc. thanx jonny RE: Historical Map making programs - krmiller - 04-27-2025 If you're looking for freeware try Paint.net. It's a free download although they do accept donations. https://www.getpaint.net/ It is a basic photo editor with graphics capability and is available on the Microsoft store. I used it when my old graphics program would not load on XP, yes it's that old but is updated regularly. I would suggest giving it a go and see if it does what you want. Paint Shop Pro has some additional capabilities but currently lists for $80-100 USD although they do run specials. Bought the 2022 version to upgrade from my 2011 version at about half that and still works fine, not a subscription but a 1 time purchase. I'm using this currently but I do a lot of graphics work for websites. Both of these allow copy and pasting images from online map sites.
