I pretty sure you can otherwise you could not test the demo.  You can try it 
by going to the following site:

https://viewer.nationalmap.gov/launch/

Download one of the USGS maps you need.  It will come down as a 
georeferenced PDF.  (You can also look at this file with Adobe Reader.)

You then need to go back to the OziExplorer site and download 
http://www.oziexplorer3.com/utils/image_convert.zip.
This program will convert your PDF file to a Tiff file you can open and 
calibrate in OziExplorer.
Startup OziExplorer and select "File" from the menu bar and then select 
"Load and Calibrate Map Image."
I am going to let you figure the rest out from Ozi help.  Search help for 
"calibrate" and it should be first item that will explain how to calibrate 
the map.

Let me know how it goes.
