Thanks Sean, I suspect one of the issues is that the map I was using (and many others) has quite an off-white background, so there is no real white in the image. I am reading up about this sort of thing, and will experiment to see how much difference it makes. However I cannot make it too complicated because I want to do quite a few maps, and I would like to enable other lay people to do the same - so the maps can be used in my prototype mapping system <http://mapping4ops.org/ShowMaps/M4OPS-index.html>.
