Do you mean what program to use to make it look "pro"?

Or do you need help writing a good story and making an exciting dungeon?

I reccomend using Hero Scribe for making the map:

You can make both european and american style maps. It has icons for all the official releases.
The only downside in my opinion is that it doesn't have a function for making the questnotes and Mentor's intro.
You will have to use another program for that. I find MS Word to cover my needs in that department.
You can download all the needed fonts here:

Guess you'll also need the graphics for the quest notes... Can't seem to find those right now :-/
Let me get back to you on that...

Hi leam, HeroScribe requires the Java Runtime Environment in order to run; please download it and install it before using HeroScribe.
If that doesn't work, I'm going to need some more info to help you out, like what you're trying to do and what is happening once you do it.
Cheers
