It crops the image to the area of map + header + border around them. You may increase the border by setting 'overlap' in the layout. You may hide header (north arrow etc.) using 'map-header 100 100 off' option in layout. > This works but it changes the symbol sizes of the stations also. > I've added two pdfs which show the different scales.

If you want to display cave in the scale 1:1000 with the topographical map as a background, try cropping the bitmap to an area slightly larger than the cave; or use SVG. Martin
