About printing timelines

Printing your TimeMap timeline requires no more than clicking the Print button on the Quick Access toolbar or choosing Print on the File menu. TimeMap uses your page setup options to determine the paper size, orientation, and margins to use when printing. You can also add page numbers and date and time information to your visual by changing the layout properties within the Page Setup dialog box.

When you print timelines that are more than one page wide, TimeMap automatically adds page break markers that you can use to join the pages into one continuous graph. If you do not want these marks to appear, from the Getting Started pane, click Options, then click the Print & PDF tab and clear the Print page align guides check box.

TimeMap also supports banner printing for timelines that are more than one page wide. See Printing a multi-page timeline banner.

TimeMap now has print preview available on the Getting Started page. You can preview a sample of the print output before sending to the printer. This is available in the Timeline View and the Spreadsheet View.
