I just produced a pdf plan map in feet from an entirely metric dataset. As easy as adding units imperial to the layout. If modified the scalebar and elevations, but not the co-ordinate system units. (It is a metric only co-ordinate system so I suppose that is OK) Easy peasy I think. Next thing is to add a language Englishimperial so that users can add dual language labels, once with metric pitch heights and one with imperial pitch heights.

I see no reason why the data entered in feet and inches in the centrelines and surveys could not be exported to the map and atlas outputs in metric units. I have never done it because 'we' are metric, but it seems to me that Therion generally allows any unit output regardless of that used for input. The Therion Book seems to imply this would work. This type of philosophy works for me for coordinate systems.
It should do. But the GNU licence! So we should wait for Stacho to check it. :( Martin _______________________________________________ Therion mailing list Therion@speleo.sk http://mailman.speleo.sk/mailman/listinfo/therion
