hm, if you're talking about the map view... make a screenshot?

 

as for the cache listings, you can "print" them to a postscript or pdf file and then convert them, but i'm sure there's easier ways to do what you wanna do (and i'm not sure what exactly it is that you wanna do).

What phone do you have? Can it read pdf files?

 

I export a pdf of all the caches I plan to do from GSAK and then store it on my iphone to read as I go.

or export them as HTML files from within GSAK.. I'd guess you'd easily get details of 500 caches on your phone.

Anything to make it easy is going to need a Premium membership. With that you can build pocket queries, which in turn let you do all sorts of handy stuff. It really is so much easier than downloading individual cache sheets.

 

I like to be able to load the nearest 500 caches to my home and keep them on my GPS and smartphone, so I know that whichever way I want to head I have all the caches within about 10 miles.
