Yeah, but I just checked map maker's options and was dobtful if there's
such possibility.
I am looking for a way (simple script, option in some program) not
necessariliy Map Maker.

This way could be useful with files of the same projection/scale,
things get complicated when projections differ and I do not know what
exactly projection am I dealing with...
hence my suggestion of using multiple points.
Anyway, thanks :)
