Printing

The website is automatically set up to remove the header and footer and only provide what's in the content area (with the white background). This will save on printing time and ink. Use your normal browser print buttons to print or CTRL+P.

Printing District Maps

From each Senator’s District tab two PDF maps are available. To print a district map that is 8.5 x 11 inches, select the Letter Size map. For a larger map, if you have a printer that can accommodate it, select the Poster Size map. Many copy centers have large-format printers.

A full-size poster is 42 x 63 inches, portrait or landscape (depending on the district). PDFs can be reduced to your preferred size. For example, reductions to 24 x 36 inches or 20 x 30 inches will fit standard poster frames. Prints can be as small as 11 x 17 inches, but the legibility suffers. To print from within Acrobat Reader, click the print icon Acrobat print icon :

For a full-size poster, set the page size to 42 x 63 inches. For reduced sizes, set the length or width 1.5 times the shorter dimension.
Set the correct orientation (portrait or landscape) for the map.
Select "Autorotate" and "Small" margins, if available.
Set page scaling option to "Fit" or "Fit to Printable Area".
