Not sure about the specific requirements of Roll20, but the product comes with an unlabelled (and secret-free) map image intended for use in VTTs.

To answer the gentleman's question, the file is a hair too big at approximately 7MB. Cutting it in two to get it to 5MB or lower would be my advice. Or reducing the file size. Whichever you prefer.

Got a notice that the map was updated to a higher resolution, yet all the files still have the same 1.1 number, and the main pdf is smaller by 3.3MB so I'm not sure what exactly was updated?

Hi Denis, yep, that's correct, the new file is smaller. The text on the mini-maps is sharper in the new version. It was only a slight change to the way various things in the file are compressed, so we didn't change the version number.

No, it's written for Old-School Essentials / the 1980s Basic D&D rules.

Ah good point, I'd not noticed that the preview doesn't show any. I've updated the preview to show some of the area descriptions and art.

Scanned image
These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format
These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
