Hello there

Good to know that Andrea.

Anyway, in my case here, available Albers projections (e.g., EPSG:3005) 
worked fine for Brazil. If I ever notice a deficiency and need another 
projection that is not available, I now know that it won't be anything 
otherworldly to implement :)

Thanks
Milton
