The title pretty much says it all. Is there some magical place that already has the maps from the official adventures blown up into printable 1x1 inch grid form that can be downloaded and printed on 8.5 x 11 inch sheets? Thanks
I've heard you can blow them up in photoshop to have the grid equal one inch and then print them and tape it together...or rather lay them out in pieces as the party discovers them.
DM David has a step by step tutorial on how to resize map to a one inch grid, add a grid to a map without one and tile it down to 8.5 x 11 sheets for printing using Gimp and Posterazor which are both free programs. He even provides a link to download those programs.

The artists of those maps have been known to sell them in hi-res. I don't think they'll be in 1 inch grids though.

I'm 99% sure that Mike Schley (http://prints.mikeschley.com/) does his maps so they can be printed off on 1x1 inch battle grids. (Or after I re-read the instructions, he has instructions on how to do so - http://schleytutorials.tumblr.com/post/90779221923/resizing-battle-maps-to-a-1-inch-grid)

Wary the wizard who focuses on homebrew, for he can create nightmares that you wouldn't even dream of
