I have a large scale map in ArcGIS Explorer Desktop made from shape files. The map covers an area of 250 km x 250 km. When I print the map to E size paper (34"x44"), the lines are blurry. A similar map printed in ArcGIS 10 does not seem to have the same issue. How can I get a crisp, clean copy?

Randy,

In basic terms ArcGIS Explorer Desktop prints a screen shot.  It's a raster image that gets scaled and sent to the printer, so it is not possible to print crisp feature data as neat as ArcMap with ArcGIS Explorer Desktop.
