Steps to get the JPEG.
1) Click the start your custom map. 2) Enter the area you're interested in using. 3) Center the map and click next. 4) Select your scale and click on View Full Map Preview. 5) Click on the map that comes up in the window to get the most detailed file (ie biggest and best version) and then right click and save the resulting JPEG.
