Here's a tip on printing a map that fills a letter-sized page in landscape format (a layout that is wider than it is tall). We've added this to the map help: just click on the little question-mark buttons at http://www.georgia2000.org/map_interface to find help on printing and other map tools. Step 1: Monitor setting Set your monitor screen area is set to 800x600 or a higher resolution. You can see your Screen Area by right-clicking on the desktop and choosing Properties, and then clicking on the Settings tab. A setting of 640x480 is not recommended since the map will appear quite small in your browser. Step 2: Turn off unnecessary layers Turn off any layers you are not interested in by un-checking them in the legend to the left of the map. Step 3: Set up printing When everything is displaying as you wish you can set up a print-out. Click the Set Up Printing tool. Uncheck the items that you don't want to display on your print-out (e.g., Legend, North arrow, etc.). Make sure "Fit to page" is chosen. Click the Print Setup button in the bottom right corner. A new window should appear for you to select printer options specific to your printer; here, set your page orientation to "landscape". Click Ok to close this window, and click Ok again to close the previous window. Step 4: Print Click the Print Map button. You should have a map that fills the page. Need some help using the other map tools?
