I've got mapping software for my Garmin eTrex 30 but I can not digitally prepare magnetic north lines on the maps as they print. What I've done is to print the maps I want and then manually draw magnetic north lines on the printed map using a protractor.

Is there any topo mapping software that will allow me to digitally draw mag north lines that are printed on the map?

I primarily use Delorme Topo for use with my Delorme PN60 and it prints magnetic north lines among many other options (you can add/remove roads, points of interest, waterways, go for more or less detail in elevation lines, add or remove the grid lines, etc). I like the software. I frequently download the high resolution maps but the standard ones are good, just not quite as detailed. You don't have to have a Delorme GPS to use it, but it is made to link to a GPS and transfer info back and forth.
