How to use the map

Zoom in to the area you want to walk and use the Snipping Tool or PrtScrn (Print Screen) key to print a map at the definition that suits you. Note that you should zoom in to where you can see the walking route clearly and read the street names if the route runs along streets. If you want to ensure that your map only prints on one page click on SAVE AS rather than PRINT and save the selected area as a .jpg file on your PC and then insert the .jpg file into an MS Word page.
