Re-enable larger print sizes

Hello,

I would like to request that the ability to select a printed page size larger than A3 be restored.  The fact that those sizes don't display properly in a web browser (which is why I understand the feature was removed) isn't nearly as big a deal as the fact that the recommended workaround (which I understand to be "save a smaller sized print area as a PDF and upscale that document to print on larger paper") isn't workable at all, as detail, clarity, scale, and really anything that would make a hard copy map useful don't translate.

In short, I'd much rather keep the ability to select the page size I want and arrive at the print area I want through trial and error than lose that ability entirely.  The workaround doesn't work.

Thank you.

  We need capability to save higher resolution PDF files of our maps.  That way we can print actual maps.  Our office has a color plotter.  Also, the prints that I am getting are much lower resolution that our standard office printers are capable of printing.  In general, I am not able to print useful maps of trails and rivers without printing numerous pages and then taping them together.

  A2 Size Please. Using the maps to show 4’x4’ bike tracks. Display is a minor issue. Need resolution.

  ted.lapis,
  
  Thanks for using Gaia GPS.

  We do not have multiple resolution options at this time.

  Would love to see other common paper sizes for plotters such as ANSI and ARCH sizes, as well as fixed scales and high resolutions.

  I want to add myself to the list of those who want ARCH A-E size support. #(ARCH-A, ARCH-B, ARCH-C, ARCH-D, ARCH-E)

  Why is the ability to print at larger sizes 24x36 and up such a big deal?  Let us download the images and print them at whatever scale we want.  It is for clarity to print larger.  You also have tiles available, but we are unable to print the tiles...why?

  Replying to an old post here but I am in the same boat. I create a track using Gaia but I have to export the gpx to another application to print an architectural 24 x 36 (ARCH D) map.
