You can download a map from the Google Maps app to use it offline for when the internet isn’t guaranteed. You can do this for both the iPad or iPhone and for Android. For Android: Open the Google Maps app, sign into Google Maps and search for the map. Go to the base of the map, tap the place name or address and then Download and if it’s a specific place, tap More and Download Offline Map. For the iPhone or iPad: Open the Google Maps app, sign into Google Maps and search for the map. At the base of the map, tap the place name or address, tap More, then choose Download Offline Map and download it.

There are several ways to print from Google Earth. One way is to press the Print button located above the Google map in its little menu bar. Another way is to save a PDF file (this button is next to the Print button), then print the file. Or, you can save the Google Earth image as an image (File => Save => Save Image), then print this image. Or, take a screenshot or screen capture and print this. One of these methods should work well for your needs.

Search for the map you want on Google Maps, including any directions, pinpoints, etc., that you want showing in the pasted version. Take a screenshot or screen capture of the map . Open your Word, Pages or other app where you want the map to be placed. Insert the screenshot or screen capture into the document as you would do for an image. Save and you’re all done.

Yes, a map can be printed from Google Maps, either with or without directions. Use the Print menu method explained in the article above or capture a screenshot onto your computer and print out the screenshot. If you don’t want to actually print but want to keep a copy on your phone, just take a screenshot or screen capture and leave it in your photos folder/desktop view.

How can I print a map from Google Maps with only the start and end destinations, without the directions?

Community Answer

To print a map from Google Maps without the directions, enter your start and end destinations, click "Directions," and then select the "X" in the top-right corner to hide the directions panel. You can then print the map showing only your starting point and destination.

Question

How can I fix the issue of printing text directions where they appear as a tiny version of a cell phone screen?

Swasti Dey

Community Answer

To resolve tiny and illegible print when printing directions from a mobile device, adjust your print settings. Ensure that page scaling is set to "Fit to Page" for better legibility. You can also try using a different browser, zooming before printing, taking a screenshot and printing the image, or transferring directions to a computer. Dedicated printing apps or software updates may also improve print quality.

Question

How can I print double-sided on Google Maps?

Swasti Dey

Community Answer

Printing double-sided on Google Maps depends on your printer settings. First, set your printer to double-sided or duplex printing. Then, open Google Maps and select 'Print.' Adjust settings like layout and paper size. Click 'Print,' and your printer will automatically print on both sides if set up correctly.
