A lot of ugly things :)))

You can change the MP macro via layout :))) OK, it's even more dirty...

This is not true.

I don't think so. I've been also asking for such a things, but this is the area 
of Martin and he is currently in Paris. He should be back on Monday.

Anyway - as far as I remember - this was also a bug in 0.2.18 and I'm not sure, 
whether is was fixed in 0.2.19. It was happening, when you've been exporting 
atlas and map from one thconfig file. So if this is the case, just comment out 
the "export atlas", may be it will help. The background images have for sure 
nothing to do with PDF size. It is strictly determined by drawn objects. May be 
- there is something drawn on the map, but you can no see it (degenerated 
background???). I do not know? If you can send me those sources, I can have a 
look at it.

Doc-title was only a temporary think, it was removed in version 0.2.19. The 
"river" comes either from survey (most probably), or  from map name. All you 
need to do is to specify title for survey. E.g.

survey river -title "Terikan River Cave"

or title for map

map river -title "Terikan River Cave"

Probably you are the first case. Survey and titles are shown on the "Survey 
structure" or "Map structure" TAB in the compiler.
