Changes:
- * Added ‘View on Map’ button for the current image.
* Altitude is now recorded if available.
* The map datum is also added to the image file.
* Time between track points is given.
* More significant figures are correctly recorded (although in the future this should adjust according to what’s available)

PrintToPDF is a shareware Macintosh printer driver that creates PDF files (readable by Adobe Acrobat� Reader or GhostScript on any platform). You do not need to have the full Acrobat package (as opposed to the Reader) installed for PrintToPDF to work. You can create PDF bookmarks to your section and subsection headings, and URLs will become hot links. PrintToPDF is not as powerful as Acrobat, but it creates simple PDFs for a much lower price ($20).
