One way is to make the map as large as you can on the screen then hold control and push the 'prt scr' (print screen, top right on the keyboard) button.

Then open your paint programe(or other image software), right click and paste.
This should paste the image of your screen, then click on the text bar and add your directions as you wanted.

You can crop the image to show just the map, if the stuff on you screen is not needed.

If directions are to be put under the map, then open word and paste instead of an image programme.

Hope that made sense.
