Installing

FreePaperMaps is a Java program. As such, you need Java installed on your computer. FreePaperMaps is compiled and tested with Java 17, but any version after that point should theoretically work.

To get FreePaperMaps, go to https://github.com/mrmaxguns?tab=packages&repo_name=FreePaperMaps and find the latest version of the FreePaperMaps package. Click on it, and then download the .jar file that has with-dependencies in its name.

From there, you just need to run the .jar file. The best place to figure out how to do that is to search up run jar file on <operating system>, where <operating system> is your OS, such as Windows, MacOS, or Linux.

On Windows, you may or may not need to first install Java at https://www.java.com/en/download/. Then, you can go to the terminal and run java -jar <filename> where <filename> is the name of the .jar file.

On Linux, you can get Java with sudo apt install default-jre. Then, you can run java -jar <filename> in the terminal, where <filename> is the name of the name of the .jar file.
