It works with any mapnik style file, although I find that osm.xml is not well suited to print. You can also render directly to a PDF as vectors with mapnik, but this is lower quality and larger than a high resolution bitmap.</span></p>
</div></div></blockquote><div><br>I pulled mapbook. This looks very promising. A question about height and width. How do you determine those values? And what are columns? Right now I can't run the code, I'm missing some packages, but that should be easy enough to resolve.<br>

I walk right past there getting gps tracings for trails. The building is gone. Much of what was an old military base is being converted in to natural habitat. I suspect it was pulled down about the same time that much of the housing was removed. <br>
