Alright here's the map I copied from Pathfinder:

But when I load it into Fantasy Grounds I get:

What's up with that?

The imagewindow by default opens in 500x500 pixel size. The minimum is 200x200 and the maximum is 700x700. The image alutomatically tries to fit the entire image in the window so zooms out (although this isn't perfect).

You can change all the above values if you create a custom ruleset. The file needed to be modified is called adventure_images.xml and the windowclass is called imagewindow. You can change the minimum, maximum, default size, and much more there.

Here (https://thepalentir.com/modules/news/article.php?storyid=3) are the exact steps for it plus a link for how to make a custom ruleset.
The only thing is that it's on anoher website :P

Also, seeing your screenshot, it seems you can scroll up (or is it down) on your mouse to zoom in your picture.
If you do it in increments, you will eventually get the exact picture proportions, You'll know it when the Loupe in the above right hand corner disapears. The only thing is that your total visible image size will never go over 700X700 unless you create a custom ruleset.

Excellent - I've got two 19 inch monitors and I'm the one with the smallest screens:) - talk about monitor envy.
