My book is almost ready. What I still need is three maps (Spitsbergen on the 
northern hemisphere - for this I wanted to use from PSTricks  Example 25-6-1
and the area around Ny Alesund/Kungsfjord and the area Andorra/Pyrenees  
(don't know yet whether the Europe maps in the geo package of PSTricks are 
suited). Since the maps I have now are copyright, I thought to use the geo 
package of PSTricks. But I have spent so much time now that I think I just 
draw all three by hand and scan them.

It never quite worked for me, but you might try to use LaTeXDraw to
build the pstricks code and generate, say, a PDF image that you could
readily include in your document.

 can you get the example to  run in LaTeX ? (I couldn't)
 Can you get any other examples to work in LyX or LaTeX?

I think the problem is how you generate LaTeX output.  I don't think
that pstricks works with pdflatex.  I think you need to go via ps
(postscript) - so export to pdf as ps2pdf

yes, I am aware of it.

no:
File `ttctexa.cls' not found.

this file is found under
/usr/local/texlive/2009/texmf-dist/doc/latex/tlc2

I guess I have to include it in the .profile file

 Would this path be found
