Print Maps

Web maps normally don't print well, as their resolution is much lower than normal print resolution, not to mention the various other unwanted text and elements that print along with the map. Print Maps changes that by leveraging Mapbox GL JS to render print resolution maps in the browser.

Options

  • Inches or millimeters
  • PNG or PDF output (PDF is Letter size for inches, A4 for millimeters)
  • Choice of map styles
  • Height and width settings
  • DPI setting

Building

Add your Mapbox access token to js/script.js, run a local webserver such as python3 -m http.server, and open index.html.
