Throw this into your virtual tabletop of choice and you should now be able to lay in a 100px grid and have it all line up.Set the x and y resolution first, and then set width and height in percent. Click okay, and your image will scale up. First set the dpi to 100dpi – this will make the image print at 1 grid square = 1 inch – and then pick Percent from the drop down menu beside the Width field and enter your percentage – in this case 463%. That means I need to scale it up by 100/21.6=463% (you always scale up by a factor equal to /). That means the current image is 21.6/100 = 21.6% the size I want it to be. I want to scale the map up so that each square is 100px wide. In this case Photoshop tells me it’s 216 pixels for 10 squares (in the bar at the top of the window) and Gimp agrees (in the bar at the bottom of the window). Your program should now tell you the number of pixels in the 10 squares. I tend to measure 10 squares this way, as it makes the calculation easy.
