I have several MapInfo map layers that I want to generate and send to my client as an image. I see that https://community.safe.com/s/article/creating-pdf-cartographic-output offers a way to render as PDF, but is there a similar method to render multiple layers to a PDF? Ideally I would want render a report with several pieces:An underlying map layer with streets, parks, terrain etc.Highway layers for the major roads in the areaCustom elements layer, with labelsSparse color-thematic grid overlayLegend for the color thematicAdditional footer for some standard text information.And some alpha transparency to a couple of the layers.

Question

I have several MapInfo map layers that I want to generate and send to my client as an image. I see that https://community.safe.com/s/article/creating-pdf-cartographic-output offers a way to render as PDF, but is there a similar method to render multiple layers to a PDF? Ideally I would want render a report with several pieces:

An underlying map layer with streets, parks, terrain etc.
Highway layers for the major roads in the area
Custom elements layer, with labels
Sparse color-thematic grid overlay
Legend for the color thematic
Additional footer for some standard text information.

And some alpha transparency to a couple of the layers.
