Can I have my map files printed?
We don't offer a printing service, but you can take your map file to a local printing company, or send it by email to a national company to have the file printed to your specification.
More Printing Queries
Can I change the print size when I get the map file printed?
We do not recommend changing the print size. All the map files have been created to be printed at Actual Size. This keeps it easy when it comes to printing, just print it at the size it's supposed to be. If the file is scaled then it could become blurry, blocky or otherwise illegible.

No, you can not publish the file online without the correct licence. This can be obtained from OS, please contact us for more information.
