19 0 0 24 May 2022

The print tool is used to generate map prints.

After selecting the Print tool from the Map Panel Toolbar:

1. the Print Layout Panel appears in the Information Panel
2. A red print extent indicator appears in the Map Window.

The Print Layout Panel includes the following options

1. Single print
2. Batch print

For a single print, the user selects the area in the map window by dragging the area while holding down the left mouse button.

For a single print, we can select the following parameters:

1. Print title [Text entered by the user]
   Allows defining a custom title instead of printing the application name. The user can enter their own text, but the title is not mandatory. The user can print with an empty title.
2. Print Format [A4, A3, A2, A1, A0]
3. Output file format [JPEG, PDF, PNG]
4. Print orientation [Portrait, Landscape]
5. Scale [1:250, 1:500, 1:1000, 1:2000, 1:5000, 1:10000, 1:15000, 1:20000. 1:25000, 1:40000, 1:50000, 1:100000]
6. Print header position [Bottom of the page, Top of the page]
7. North arrow [None or select 1 of 3 options]
8. Map rotation [default 0; the map print can be rotated by specifying a rotation angle]

Additionally, we can specify:

1. Whether to print the legend?
   The legend will be printed on the next page.
   For graphic formats such as JPEG and PNG, the legend is printed in a separate file. The print output will be generated as a ZIP package containing the map print file and the legend file.
2. Whether to display the print generation date on the printout?
   The print generation date will be placed in the print header.
3. Whether to print the name of the user who generated the print?
   The system username of the user who generated the print will be placed in the print header.
4. Whether to print the application logo?
   The system logo will be printed in the print header.
5. Whether to print the information clause?
   The information clause will be included in the print header.
6. Whether to split the print into A4 sheets?

By clicking “Print,” we send a print request. Depending on the selected parameters, this may take several minutes.
