Need help exporting map made in r20 as an image for use elsewhere

I'm making a map for a friend's game because he likes the look of what I can make in Roll20. The problem is that he runs his game in Foundry. Is there any way I can take the whole of my map and get it to him as a relatively high quality image that he can use as a background in Foundry, aside from screenshotting it into chunks and manually re-assembling them? Any insight on this would be much appreciated!

Hi Ben! Unfortunately, if the maps is composed of many pieces, that's the only way. Your other options are to rebuild the map in an image editing program, using downloaded assets, or if the map is a single image, select the image, press "Z", right-click the preview and download it to disk.

To add to Keith's comments, I'd suggest that building your maps on Roll20 to use elsewhere is just a bad idea generally and you have found the reason why.
I believe I downloaded "Dungeon Painter Studio" off of Steam years ago and then never got around to using it.... But it can build maps easily with the downloadable content off of Roll20. Till reading this thread I forgot I downloaded it.... <a href="https://store.steampowered.com/app/592260/Dungeon_Painter_Studio/" rel="nofollow">https://store.steampowered.com/app/592260/Dungeon_Painter_Studio/</a> I'm sure more talented people can use Photoshop or Gimp or something to make great maps. I was looking for something that would give me an experience similar to Roll20s interface.

If you have a 4K screen, maximizing the screen, turning off the grid and sizing the map to be fully displayed, you normally get away with a single screenshot.
Thanks for the info, everyone! I'll look into using a separate program for future maps.
