I did notice this morning that you can use the POSITION keyword with
cgMap_Set. Setting the same position for your map and your image should
align things perfectly.

cgMap_Set, Position=pos, ...
cgImage, Postion=pos, ...
cgMap_Continents, ...

Works on the graphics display and in PostScript identically. :-)

Cheers,

David
