Best way to print/view maps with pushpins and balloon information

Hi

I understand MP has its restrictions where it can only print relative to whats shown on the screen

I do know some have mentioned to use the SAVE AS WEB PAGE, option .

Currently I am using the software to show pushpins that represent our office locations, along with balloon information

The problem I am running into is that some offices are close by or on top of each other, so the balloon info end up blocking each other

I tried to print as large as I could thinking, it would spread it out but it doesnt. All it does is spread out the printing distance but the detail is the same.

I was also wondering if theres a way to automatically import data, and use #'s as pushins but it would obviously have to automatically number it-self accordingly (1, 2, 3 to represent each location)

Appreciate your time and help, thanks in advance though..

Damon

I do this sort of work at a reasonable price
and have a program for generating icons.

See Mattys Consulting - Custom Programming for details.
It should be exactly what your looking for.
