Hi All,

Thanks for the +1s.
Got an input about making it printable. So, did it.

[image: print.png]

Click the print icon on left sidebar to open a page where you can adjust
various settings and take a printout.

Only the map portion will be printed. You can increase the height/width
pixels and then print to A0/A1/A2 size etc to take large high-res prints.
(and I have no idea what setting makes the perfect print, if you find out
then pls share.)
Background tiles : I've used from leaflet providers.
<https://leaflet-extras.github.io/leaflet-providers/preview/> Pls lookup
legalities yourself.
