What will you see on these maps?
These PDF maps were created to show detailed boundaries for county commission
districts, precincts, as well as, legislative boundaries. In addition, these
maps include streets, streetnames, city limit boundaries (as of 1999 Census
Bureau's Boundary Annexation Survey), and other census block boundaries and
base map features (railroads, powerlines, streams, etc.).
When opened these maps will default to the extent of the county and details
of boundary locations may not be clear and street names will not be readable.
Use the zoom tool in Acrobat Reader to resolve this problem.
Map Tools
Zoom Tool (Enlarging)
Click on the Zoom Tool  on the toolbar
of Acrobat Reader and use the cursor to draw a box around the area where more
detail is needed. To zoom back out, click on one of the page icons  on
the toolbar.
Panning Tool (Moving)
Once the desired area is selected the PDF format allows for shifting the map
to see other areas. To do this, click on the Pan Tool ,
place the cursor on the map, left click and hold the mouse button down to "grab"
the map. Then move the cursor to shift the visible portion of the map. Repeat
this step as necessary to view the desired area.

Printing
These maps were designed at 34x44 inches to show street level detail and printing
results are best when produced at this size. To do this you will need a large
format plotter capable of printing 34x44 inch sheets. The colors, patterns,
etc. were also designed for printing using a Hewlett Packard 1055CM plotter.
Some variation in quality should be expected if these maps are printed at sizes
or using devices other then these mentioned.
