The maps below are maps made in Google Maps.
A complaint we receive is that the blue icons we placed on the map will either be printed as a red general icon (without our numbers), or will not print at all.
This is a problem caused by the Google Maps print function (and often complained about in forums).
A work-around we found that works:
1. Download the browser Firefox (see
their website)
2. Use Firefox to browse to one of the maps below
3. Use the Google 'Print' function (just above the map
section)
4. Print the resulting print file by using Control-P in the
browser (do NOT use the Google Print function in the top
right corner!).
The same trick appears to work with the
Safari browser for Windows.
We're sorry you may have to download and install a new
browser, just to be able to print properly!

or negative) with this solution on the e-mail address:
