Adding to the question. How can I print these maps to scale? In the print options I can set it to fit page or actual size. Both seem to come out the same. Is it possible to print to a scale that would be used with a UTM Grid Reader?

Just curious if you know why you can print like this in BaseCamp and not Mapsource? Or am I wrong there.

Well I can't because I am at work and will have to wait to get home to try so I thought I would ask to make sure I understand that you actually did it and it does work to set to UTM so now I can go home all excited about this function.

Thanks for checking. Ya wisenhiemer.  ;)

Interesting. I was looking for that but it didn't turn up. I will look again tonight at home. Were you able to change to UTM?

Thanks

I noticed when printing from basecamp that it prints with grid lines for lat and long coords and shows the coordinates. Is there a way for me to switch these to be UTM lines and coords?

I am pretty new to using GPS and Mapsource. I recently bought a Garmin 60csx and have been learning. I downloaded the colorado topo from this site and am wondering about it being worth it to buy the Garmin Maps. My thing is I want the maps on my GPS as well as my computer. I also want to print these maps to bring into the field and track myself with both GPS and paper map.

Thanks folks
