I use IV as well and find it more useful than PP.

What level of detail do you want?

Is this for street or terrain?

“Street” most often.

Occasionally, I go “in” to max zoom on Google or Bing. I think the Rand McNally site may match that - haven’t checked closely yet (busy with family and responding on my thread tonight!)

I also haven’t checked all the other suggestions, but, the Rand McNally site MAY be the most practical answer at present...

I just tried a fairly high zoom on Rand McNally (local streets trace out in dark grey “outline”); screen captured that and pasted the image into IV; then color corrected with gamma @ .37 and contrast and saturation cranked up a bit. Looks promising, except bodies of water are going to be pretty dark. Definitely better than Google, for printing.
