Printing

An orienteering map must be printed on good, possibly water resistant, paper (weight 80 - 120 g/m2).

Spot colour printing is recommended for IOF events. Other printing methods may be used, if colours and line width have the same quality as printing with spot colours.

Legibility depends on the correct choice of colours.

Spot colour printing

Four colour offset printing
