is 1:2,000,000. Page size is approximately 29 by 38 inches. The
maps are oriented with the long axis in the x-direction for plotting.
These maps (phos2m.hp and sg2m.hp) were designed
to be plotted on a HP Inkjet Plotter (model 650-C), but can be
plotted on any full-color (inkjet or electrostatic) plotter which
will accept HPGL2 code.
