Hi and firstly thank you for such an excellent Mapping App. I have just started using it to help with our rural fire service and find it very useful.



In Australia the government makes available GeoPDF maps in 25,000 scale and i tried to load one in the new current version (7.0.14). Unfortunately it says "problem with some maps" "Can not find GEO Info!"



Reading the forum it seems the Australian format is not the correct format?



Is there any way i can modify the PDF's to comply or might this standard be accepted in the future?



Currently I  convert them to Orux format with Mapc2mapc but there are many maps and they double in size when converted.



Thanks for any help
