Hi,

First of all, thanks a lot for this wonderful tool which is, so far, the best tool I know to export maps for print!

In particular, I'm a huge fan of the "print route" feature, to output daily maps of bicycle trips. One issue I have so far is however that it requires quite a lot of manual handling to split a multi-day GPX track and output pages per day, while fitting my printing capacities (only A4 / A3 for instance). This, or exporting a very large picture and tiling manually in an editing software aftewards.

A feature which would be a really nice addition would be to be able to tile along a route with a given paper size. That is tell Nik4 a paper size (typically A4) and a route to fit (--fit route style for the simplest, could be refined afterwards to not take only the bounds into account but the true shape as well) and a padding. It would output a set of tiles (each of size A4) along the route.

What do you think about this?
Thanks!
