If you selected Travel Package or Strip Maps in step 4, select the miles per page that you want your route to
cover from the Miles Per Page drop-down list.
Note
: When setting the number of miles per page, keep in mind that the number of miles is not the distance
of the route. Instead, it equals the width of the strip map and determines the scale of the map.
