Depending on how the course is organized, you may find it helpful to print
out portions of the course materials (like certain maps or documents) or the
entire course (for use in a binder, for example). You may also wish to download
an entire copy of this website to your computer for use offline. This page provides
some tips and resources to help you with printing and downloading this site.
Printing
Many pages on this website have special features to facilitate printing.
Look for a "Printable version" link in the upper right hand corner
of the page. Clicking this link will open a new window with a version of the
page that is formatted specially for ease of printing. You can then use the
Print command to print out that page.
In this course, many of the emails have predictive plots (maps) attached to
them. If you wish to print these maps out, use the following tips for best results.
After opening the map (it will appear in a new browser window), you should open
"Page Setup" and select "Landscape" orientation. Then set
the margins as small as they will go for your printer (try 0.25 inches for each
margin). After making these changes, click OK and proceed to print the map.
If you wish to generate a hardcopy of the entire course, you
can view a printable version of
the full course. Clicking this link will open a new window that is formatted
especially for printing. Note that this printable version does NOT include any
of the attachments to the task emails, nor any of the readings.
