I have a really diffficult probelm with the printing of the module walkthroughs like KM, SG and WW. When I print up an page, I select all the text and the pictures on the website screen nad then I right click it and select print preview. I have to do it this way as it is the only way I know of to get the whole section that I want to print, otherwise, just printing up the whole page, I get all thast junk like the adds etc, that I don't want.

Now when I click on print preview, the printer software opens up the selection I chose, but I can bearly see the picture, that is with the guide. When I rty to chose to change the size of the print out, then all the text goes so small.

I need some help that will help me to print out the walk through guide that will have the picture on the same page where it shows all the words in 100% so I can actually read it. Thanks. I would appreciate all the help that anyone may give.

Download Open Office or use Microsoft Word 2003+ if you have it,

Highlight the text and copy it with the picture, it'll copy over (usually) exactly as it looks on the walkthrough.

I just tested this with three pages from the Kingmaker walkthrough on Open Office 2.0 (and since Open Office is a freeware version of Microsoft Office 2003, you get the point).

I have tried that but it's all black

I have tried to do that, but when I print it out using microsoft office 2003, the entire print out is black background and white writting. what can I do to change it so it is white background and black writting, it uses up so much black ink that I can't afford to waste. Please help.

then that's just a color printing issue. I sincerely doubt you'll get legible material printing out stuff that's black and white (for the map that is).

You might be able to just rely on the markers in game for the map and just a text walkthrough. Most of the maps here on gamebanshee don't have a lot more than the in game map.

I am not talking about the map

For gee sake, Have I mentioned a map anywhere. I am not talking about maps, I am talking about the whole guide. I have got it all fixed and I am gratified ofr the people who actually had actual help to give, but I don't know how you can ask one qeustion and then 2 weeks later, you go to look at what is there and everyone is completely off the topic. Why can't people go with what is asked. I appologise to everyone who helped me, but someone at the bottom had all this incorrect information about printing out maps, like he or she thought I was asking about the maps, do people actually read the qeustions (I wonder). For once in my life I would like to see people actually reply to a topic with the answers to what they are asking and not sometjing off beat. Anyway, I just thought I would have w whine, I don't mean to be rude or disrespectfull, I just thought I would state the obvious, that I feel really needs to be brought up so people take notice. This happens to me all the time and I have finally got bored with it. Thanks.

Yes in fact you DID when you said you were having problems selecting text and the picture with it and it not coming out right on your printed version. That picture IS the map.
You wrote:I need some help that will help me to print out the walk through guide that will have the picture on the same page where it shows all the words in 100% so I can actually read it.
That picture is a map, the one right next to each section of the walkthrough, it's not the world map, but it's still a map.
