Copyright with Physical Map Printing

2

I could not find any specific information about physically printing maps found on the site. These are not for embedding into sites or printing FROM a website. These are actually on paper.

I understand that they have to be credited and with a logo? Do these need to be in a specific place on the map itself, in the credit section... on the bottom right of the map? Can guidelines be given about this please.

I am seeking to include maps in documentation to people for short term stays in Barcelona City.

Have a look at the legal FAQ. In short is says: do what you would do if you had to credit a commerical data source.
