thcri Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 I have City Select and I want to print more than what is on the screen as far as area. In other words once I set my scale I no longer can see all that I want to print. Is there a program out there that can take my database file and print a larger area. I have a plotter and want to print to a 36 x 36 area. Any suggetions would be apprecitated. murph Quote Link to comment
+Moe the Sleaze Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 One method that I have used, but is time consuming, is to take a series of screen captures and stitch them together to make a larger composite. That's how I did this. Quote Link to comment
+Timpat Posted December 8, 2005 Share Posted December 8, 2005 You can do this with USAPhotoMaps. This program will download your GPS data and display your waypoints and tracks over USGS topo or aerial photos from TerraServer. You can then select as large an area you want and save it as a "Screen.jpg", and can even georeference it in UTM. Quote Link to comment

Problem is I end up with to much graphics. I was hoping to just get the state map with the interstates and main roads. murph Quote Link to comment
