I am looking to print a route 500miles with a constant scale for elevation. Other apps will change the scale from start to finish of each page. I need the scale to go from the lowest point to the highest on each page. Can plotaroute do this? I have been trying to find some examples of the premium pdf output.

Sorry Carolyn, that isn't possible when printing a route, but if it's the elevation profile you're interested in, there are additional options on the Route Profile page, including changing the Y axis to start to from lowest point on the route. Select "View elevation profile" from your My Routes page to go to the Route Profile page.

Just echoing Rob's point from his post of 25/2/2019, "Great - what would be REALLY USEFUL is to be able to select a scale at which to produce pdf maps "
I used the multipage map print this week. It is a very helpful feature but I found using the output 'in the field' quite confusing because the scales varied. I had 4 pages. Pages 1, 3, and 4 were printed at 1.75cm = 200m while page 2 was printed at 2.2cm =500m. I'm not worried about the slightly odd scales. These are partly subject to the way I chose to print the PDF. However, swapping from one scale to another was very disorientating. Suddenly I was walking at half the speed (or approxiamtely so... I still can't quite work it out)!
When producing the PDF, I had checked the first map to see that it had the level of detail I needed so map 2, with its deminished detail, came as a bit of a surproise when I got to it during the walk.
With Rob, I would feel more comfortable if I could select the scale and let Plotaroute determine how many pages are needed.
