True, I guess there is no effort to create them, just twice the files to manage later on.

Sometimes there will be good reasons to have multiple files, other times less, is more.

Not an issue for a one or two cave system, but it all adds up for multi-cave systems

where maps an atlas’ are produced at multiple scales (parts-of-cave, cave, groups of caves, whole system).

It makes sense to me that the pdf outputs should be as flexible as possible if the map author wants them to be.

Just putting ideas out there, I’ll be happy however hyperlink functionality is implemented.

Stacho and Martin have made pretty good choices so far :)
