You can export or print your Security Center maps to PNG and PDF, or print physical copies to share important information outside of Security Center.

What you should know

When exporting or printing maps, the output does not include the entire map. The map view that you export or print depends on which map you have open and which area is displayed. Zoom level also affects the output.

To include entities in your exported or printed map view, you can use the map layers to show or hide different entities. Cluster bubbles of map entities appear the same in exported and printed maps.

To export files as a PDF, print using Microsoft® print to PDF.
