In today’s post, we want to particularly highlight one very important feature which is often overlooked by many teachers. This is the ability to print at a high resolution (4 times your screen’s resolution) both maps you create and those shared with you and even maps you found on other websites. Also, 'Your printed map includes a legend, which lists the map’s layers (including their placemarks and other features) and any saved directions that were selected in the left panel. '
Here is how to print your map:
- In the left panel, click the map menu button
. Or, if the map is view-only, click the share icon
.
- Click Print map. (If you don’t see this option, make sure you’re signed in to your Google account.)
- In the “Print map” dialog, select the page size, orientation, and output type:
- PDF: Creates a PDF file, which you can download to your computer.
- Image: Opens your browser’s Print dialog.
- Click Print
