Bill In answer to your questions...
1) When creating the scraps, are these defined as "elevation" or as "extended"? >I cannot find anything in the Therion book which describes what the difference is. Yes, I commiserate. I added this to the wiki some time back. http://therion.speleo.sk/wiki/doku.php/faq#projections_plan_elevation_extend ed_and_none The example you linked to looks like "extended", but the principle for including a map within a map is identical regardless of the projections. 2) How are these included in the main map? You can do it in a single thconfig file (or multiple files). Main thing is to create the 'inserted' map before creating the main map, so in a single thconfig you would write in this order... export map -proj extended -layout LayoutExtended -o MillCreekExtendedElevation.pdf export map -proj plan -layout mainmap -o MillCreekCave.pdf Somewhere in the layout for mainmap you would have already included; map-image 0 0 nw MillCreekExtendedElevation.pdf or else you could do the second export like this without including the output image in the layout. export map -proj plan \ -layout mainmap \ -layout-map-image 0 0 nw MillCreekExtendedElevation.pdf \ -o MillCreekCave.pdf I think it is written up somewhere, perhaps it is only in the forum posts.
