I have a number of 1:50000 A2 size maps which I would like to digitise for ease of editing, captioning and printing (we send PS to our printer).  Currently I have a NeXT with 20MB memory, 850MB disk space and an HSD A4 Scanner.

Does anyone have suggestions as to how to go about scanning/digitising these maps (which are essentially simple line art) and what software package(s) would be suitable for storing/editing this information.


thanks in advance

David George.

P.S. I do hold the copyrights on these maps.
