Please suggest map set options for Logos 7

I have logos deluxe map set. It does have many good features, but sometimes I just want a simple white background map with names of cities that can easily be printed on BW printer. Please suggest some other map resources available for both NT and OT. I would like to add to my library. Right now I am studying in both Acts and 1 Samuel (Saul, David), so these are the most important to me right now. I tried a search on the forums and I couldn't find this information. It may be just my lack of knowledge of search building. If you can help with that it would also be appreciated.

You probably didn't see it, since it was in the 'What do you want for Logos8?' thread. I doubt the map-aholics there will be terribly thrilled, since Logos is already invested in their 3rd attempt.

I know you didn't ask, but Bible Mapper (PC stand-alone) is best of illustrating Bible class accounts. And Carta, on another Bible software platform, is best for clear BW printing, specific to the text (the old McMillan).

That said, in Logos, you'd do well to buy the Bible Atlas's in Logos (search 'atlas'), then return the ones that you don't like/work. Maps are very personal, oddly enough. And also you need to test with your printer.

Zondervan Atlas: Nice color maps, combining geographical descriptions, and historical maps. I enjoy.

New Bible Atlas: Both color and BW. I like the geographical maps/discussion, but not the historical. Seem old-timey.

Nelson's Complete Book: BW maps are fuzzy. Don't know how they'd print.

Nelson's 3-D: Similar to the Logos 3D years back. The maps are 4-color; don't know how that'd translate to BW greys.

Holman's: The location text is tiny and fuzzy. Colored. Good for personal use; not classes.

Logos Biblical Places (part of software): Text tiny, maps in color. Limited historical maps, but 3-D'ish. Ok-ish.

I find black and white maps in the following resources (which might be valuable to your for other reasons, too):

The Bible Knowledge Commentary (OT and NT)

The Jewish Study Bible (OT only)

I find others in various commentaries and older Bible dictionaries.

I don't know of an atlas or map collection in Logos format that features simple black and white maps.
