====== Add Map to Page ======
  - Notes
    - Supported Formats jpg, gif, & png
    - Max file size is 5 mb for free, 10 mb for pro and plus.  If too big, jpg can often compress well without noticeable issues because most maps have simple data.
    - Best to match map cells to page cells (or have more page cells in each direction)
    - To line up easily, make sure upper right corner of map is "on the grid"; i.e. the border should be a multiple of cell size.
  - Export map at 70 pixels/cell
  - Upload map to Library (into folder for campaign/adventure)
  - Switch to Map layer
  - Drag map from Library to Page
  - Right Click > Advanced > Set Dimensions and set to match the original map
    - If the cell size does not match (i.e., a map with 50 pixels/cell), set dimensions to scale to 70 pixels/cell.  Given a 100x100 cell 50 pixel/cell map (5000x5000) image size, set the dimensions to 7000x7000.
  - Grab the map and drag until upper right corner is close to the page upper right.  It will snap to the grid in the right place
  - Switch back to Object layer
