Print Maps with Courses dialog

Use this dialog when you want to print maps and courses.

The right part of the dialog shows a list of the available courses. The left part of the dialog has the settings that control the printing.

Selecting which courses or classes to print:

You can select a course or class for printout by checking the box next to the name of the course or class. You can select as many courses or classes as you wish. If you select the "Courses" heading, one copy of each course is printed. If you select the "Classes" heading, one copy of each class is printed.

If a course is a relay course or it has loops, a + box is shown to the left of the course name. By clicking the + box, the course expands, and all course variations are shown. You can print an individual course variation by checking the box next to the variation number; or you can print all variations by checking the box next to the course name.

If a course has one or more map exchange(s), a + box is shown to the left of the course name, or course variation number. By clicking the + box, the course expands, and the course parts are shown. You can print one or more parts by clicking the box next to the part number, or you can print all parts by checking the box next to the course name (variation number).

Select from which canvas to print:

This dialog prints maps from each canvas separately. First select which canvas to print from. If a course spans multiple canvases, you need to print each part separately. Unfortunately, Condes does not (yet) support printing from multiple canvases onto the same page.

Printout scale

If you wish to change the printout scale, you need to use the Setup Map dialog from the relevant canvas.

Selecting which area to print:

Condes offers three options as for which area to print:

	Option	Which area is printed?
	Defined print area	Condes prints the area that is defined for the current course and canvas. Use the Course Layout / Show/Hide Print Area menu item to see the print area. Click on the frame to drag / resize the area. Double click on the frame to select whether this print area is common for all courses, or each course has its individual print area
	Entire canvas area	Condes prints the area that is defined by the boundaries of the canvas.
	Area covered by course	Condes prints an area that is defined by the smallest rectangle circumscribing the course (excluding control descriptions etc.)

Control descriptions and course symbols (out of bounds, refreshments etc) are shown if they fall within the boundaries of the above mentioned print area.

Selecting how many copies to print of each course:

You can choose between One copy of each course, and Fill page with copies of course

If you have selected "One copy of each course", Condes tries to fit the course to print onto as few pages as possible.

This also means that if there is room for more than one printout on the same page, Condes fills up the page with different courses.

If the print area is too large for one page, you can check the box Limit to first page of each course if you do not want the course to spread across multiple pages.

If you select "Fill page with copies of course", Condes prints only what fits within one page of each course, and it fits as many copies of the course as possible onto the page.

When laying out multiple courses (or multiple copies of the same course) on a page, Condes applies a layout method that optimizes the use of the space on the page, and at the same time make cutting the courses from each other as easy as possible.

Print all selected courses on the same map

This is an option to use if you create training exercises with multiple courses on the same map.

Print Map

Check this box if you want the map to be printed with the course. If the box is left unchecked, the course is printed without the map.

Print Class / course name / team info on the reverse side

This option allows you to print a text page on the reverse side of the map, so that the map can be identified without being revealed. The option is available only when you limit the output to the first page of the course.

Choose between No print on reverse side, Class/course name on reverse side and Map on reverse side.

Click the Text format... button to open the Setup Text on back of map dialog. .

Page Setup

Click the Spacing and Overlap button to configure how maps are laid out on a page.

Spacing controls the spacing between multiple printouts on the same page

Overlap controls the overlap when a course printout is split onto multiple pages.
Windows does not always provide accurate information on the printable page size, so without overlap, there may be a gap between what is printed on two adjacent pages.

Check the Center printout on page to place the printout at the page center. If the box is left unchecked, the printout is aligned to the top left page corner.

Printer Setup

Click the Printer Setup ... button to open the Windows printer configuration dialog.

If the Orientation landscape box is checked, landscape orientation (versus portrait orientation) is used when printing, i.e. the longest side of the page is at the top.

Use the selector to configure single or double-sided printing (if your printer supports double-sided printing).
