Het Everyone
Tried to find the answer and just figured it was easier to ask the question.
I have some property for sale in southern Utah, I would like to be able to map a route from a major highway near the property to the property itself. Now making the route is easy of course but I would like to save it as a .jpg so that I can email it to perspective buyers since I can't always make it out there to show them because of time restraints and being 2.5 hrs away
How can I do this?
thanks in advance
Where in southern UT? Got water rights?
I suggest you create your route in MapSource/BaseCamp, make a screenshot (On a PC shift-PrtScrn), paste the image into a photo editor and save it as a JPG.
its outside of Cedar city about 30 miles west in a little desert town of newcastle, no water rights
here's a link to the KSL ad...

thanks for the reply I will give that a try
worked great thank you very much :)
If you're using Windows Vista or Windows 7, just use the Snipping Tool (look under "accessories"). It's capable of taking screenshots of either the whole window or a user-defined rectangle. You can save it as either .jpg or .png but I have found the .jpg files are poor quality and you'll get cleaner results with .png.
But for your application, I wonder if e-mailing them a link to the property on Google Maps wouldn't be more practical since it would allow the prospective buyer to create their own directions from their current location.
Nice to know about the snipping tool.
