Add ability to export floorplans in bulk and select export size

Printing floorplans in bulk adds efficiency and functionality to space and move management because it means multiple floorplans can be printed as a packet. In the case of multi-floor moves or just for the purposes of updating maps in large campus properties. Additionally, these exports are often needed in specific print sizes such as for a large format printer (18x36 inch, 36x48 inch) and need to be legible at this size. The major beneficiary of this are users of the tool who do not have access to a CAD license or working knowledge of CAD integrator. As licensing is expensive, it is unreasonable to expect that printing of this sort can only be done via AutoCad or related product. How should it work: I envision an export option from the portfolio module (Portfolio > Locations > Floors), then select at the left the floorplans needed for export, then click an export button that opens a settings window. This window would include the graphics menu options: theme, label, and report, along with export size and layout (portrait/landscape) as well as export file type (jpg, pdf, etc.)

    I second this idea, our end users also have the need to export the drawings but the way things are right now they cannot get a big enough or detailed enough export for it to be useful. Please do consider adding the enhanced printing functionality.
