# Sharing Maps JMap allows you to create and share map images. You can copy a map to the clipboard and paste it into another application, send a map by email or save an image of the map in a file. These functions are accessed via the map's pop-up menu (right-click on the map).
## Copying a Map to the Clipboard You can copy a map to the clipboard and paste it to another application (word processor, presentation software, email, etc.). Access the pop-up menu by right-clicking on the map and selecting **Share... -> Copy to clipboard**. Afterwards, you can use the **Paste** function in the application that will receive the image. ## Saving a Map Image You can save a map image in a file. Use the pop-up menu by right-clicking on the map and selecting **Share... -> Save as...**. You must then select a target directory and enter a name for the file. ## Sending a Map by Email JMap allows you to send an image of a map by email.
