PRINTING
To create a large-format copy of a map, specialized copying services are required. Several copying services offer production of copies from map files stored on Zip disks or CD-RW. Production is possible from various formats including PDF, TIFF, and JPEG files. The maximum size copy varies. Cost is usually calculated by square foot, and some businesses charge an additional "file opening" fee. Currently, the square-foot cost ranges from $5 to $12 for a color print; black and white copies are usually substantially less.
