RMweb Premium martin_wynne Posted December 9, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 9, 2013 (edited) Right done that found a square how do I lift it and post it? At: http://www.fonant.com/osmap.html zoom in to the maximum size which shows the OS Landranger maps (200 pixel squares). In Firefox, Tools > Page Info. Then Media tab. Click in the list and then scroll down it using the arrow keys. Each map square will appear below, one at a time. On the required one, click the Save As... button. Change the file name to whatever_you_want.png The .png bit is important. Edited December 9, 2013 by martin_wynne Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RMweb Premium martin_wynne Posted December 10, 2013 RMweb Premium Share Posted December 10, 2013 (edited) Hi Mick, If you saved the file as I mentioned above, change the file name so that it ends in .png To change a file name, right-click on it and then click Rename. Windows will ask you if you are sure you want to change the file extension. Answer yes. regards, Martin.
