I recently bought the digital version of Tales from the Yawning Portal, since I had an upcoming game running the Sunless Citadel. I wanted to have an easy access to the digital map. I already own the physical version, and I usually use the physical books for running games and the digital versions for maps and combat. It was a bummer to not have the maps show up in the Maps VTT. At first I thought, this might just take a bit, but it has been a couple of days now, my game is already over, and after a bit of googling it seems, that this book isn't supported. I bought it and I literally couldn't use it. I had to download a version of the map on the internet and upload it on my own, which of course is not such a big deal, but now I spend about 20 dollars to do this step myself anyways.
I attached a screenshot of the marketplace entry for the Tales from the Yawning Portal, where it clearly indicates map support in the pictures.
Yeah, unfortunately that book isn't directly supported in Maps. If you open the book here on the site, you can save those map images and manually upload them to Maps, but they won't natively appear in the Map Browser.
I've let the devs know about that image on the Marketplace page. That will likely be removed. For future reference, the best way to confirm whether a book is supported in Maps is to check the row of icons just below the Add to Cart button. An icon there will identify the number of maps available in Maps. (If it's missing, there aren't any.)

For any additional concerns, I'd recommend speaking with customer support.

I tried this with the map of the top floor of the Sunless Citadel and that is too big to not screw the resolution. But thank you! :)
