	I seem to have the same problem with my version of Adobe Reader.
	If there is a way to print a large Adobe Reader document
	on a series of pages, I wish somebody would tell me how.
	I might have to make a reduced-resolution GIF or JPG version
	of the map for printing purposes.

	The map is NOT a three-D map like the prior ones.  It is
	a "node-map", that is, it displays the connections between
	stars, not their relative locations.  I will fix the map
	to link in Delta Trianguli as per your description.

	What happened was that in order to convert a three-D map
	into a node map, one has to simplify. If you draw connections
	between a star and *all* the other stars, the map becomes
	a solid black wad of lines. It is just that in the process
	of simplifying, my computer program inadvertently
	left out the critical links.  But I will rectify things.
