Hi Bruce Yes, I'm using export map. "page-grin on" and "size x y cm" is just used for debugging.
Attached you'll find my map. As you can see there is plenty of space around the map. May be it's more clear what I mean if you can see it. ;-) I want the map to be more lower left in the same scale. Is this possible in any way? Thanks Torsten Bruce <bruce at tomo.co.nz> hat am 27.
