if you are on street view google maps is it possible to save the picture to your computer so that you can print a copy

ie this pub

Press prt scrn (print screen) then open paint and select paste from the edit menu.

Apparently not DrFilth- but
if you click on this link

Then Right click on the image. Then click on View Background Image. Then click on Save Image As.

Job done!

can't you just print it out same as you would any other page, without having to save it?

[ChuckFickens]

There is even a little printer icon above the image (on the right) for doing just that, jno :)

[DrFilth]

sir prize thank you that worked

chuck don't think i have paint i am on a laptop , windows vista, i will have another look

the reason i want a picture is the pub used to be called the big bradford and it has been pulled down , nice pub few years back
there used to be another one near it called the little bradford which changed its name to the why not ( that got pulled down a few years back but i have a photo )

when the new season starts i know a few blues who will say

where the F**** is the pub :)

well, that's what I thought, Chuck. But I guess DrF wants to keep a copy and print it out sometime in the future.

"don't think i have paint"

Paint is a standard part of all version of windows since version 1.0... it's on the start menu under accessories

Google offer a great printing service, if you click the print button it will offer you directions in which it'll let you insert maps at any point you like. Good for giving maps, street views etc of "tricky bits" which might not make sense after a couple of hours on a motorway.
