The Printing Tool is included by default (under the "Home" tab) in all HTML5 viewers.
In the Desktop and Tablet interfaces, the map previews the extent to be printed using an overlay. The user can change the print preview overlay to match their printout exactly. The procedure to adjust the extent is as follows:
- Pan and zoom the map to center the area of interest in the map viewport. Zooming the map does not change the scale at which the map prints.
- Select theLock print preview with map checkbox to lock the print preview overlay to a position on the map.Deselect the checkbox to move the print preview extent around the map.
- Change theMap Scalesetting as needed to ensure the overlay covers the desired area. The Map Scale setting's Current Extent option assures that all material in the viewport will be printed.
