[Therion] Printing xvi maps (done with pdf's)

[Bruce Mutton]

Ben
I tried Stacho's suggestion, and it worked fine, although I think he
abbreviated the syntax of the export command a bit much.  Here's my more
verbose version...

layout bruce-map-export
  north true
  scale 1 500
  base-scale 1 500 
  units metric 
    
  page-grid on
  grid-size 100 100 100 metres
#  layout-map-header 0 0 s  #causes error?
  legend on
  statistics explo all
  statistics topo all
  statistics carto all
  statistics copyright all
  debug on
endlayout

export map -projection plan -layout bruce-map-export \
  -layout-color map-fg 90 \  
  -output SurveyPlan.pdf -fmt pdf  

Try this Ben.  The 90 gives a passage that is more lightly shaded than 50.
Good Luck
Bruce

Hi Stacho,
I've been wanting to get print-outs of XVI, too, so I am verry
interested in your recommendation, below.  I've tried it, but this is
the result I get: only the centreline is visible, not LRUD.

Stacho's  Example:

source
map centerline-map
  my-survey
endmap
endsource

select centerline-map
export map.pdf -layout-color map-fg 50 -layout-scale 1 500


... where my-survey is the name of top-level survey.
