How do I print a map?
By combining map panning, zooming, and mark ups like redlining, you can create a custom map of any location in the county and have it rendered as a PDF. During the print preview you have option to include map features, such as title bars, legend, scale bar, north arrow, and more.
Open the Printing Tool by clicking on the printer icon in the top right hand corner of the Web Map display window.
