Manually Assembling a Multi-page Map

After you have printed the sheets for your multi-page map, you are ready to assemble the

map.
Before you begin, be sure you have a clear work surface large enough to accommodate the

final map size.
You will need the following tools to assemble your map:

• Pencil
• Razor knife
• Straight-edge ruler (longer than the edge of the longest sheet)
• Permanent tape (invisible or "magic" type)
• Removable tape

To Manually Assemble a Multi-page Map

Use the following steps to manually assemble a multi-page map.

1. For each sheet that needs to be trimmed, mark the edges of the sheet to indicate the

areas to trim.

2. Use the straight edge ruler and razor knife to trim each sheet to the thin black line

bordering the map.

Note For adjacent sheets, trim only one page. This makes piecing the sheets

together easier.

The following diagrams of a 2 x 2 and 3 x 3 multi-page map provide additional

information on where to trim the sheets. The arrows indicate the edges to be

trimmed.
