Hello, I wonder if anyone has tried mkgmap-generated map on Garmin mobileXT (symbian). Text labels (POI and streetnames) are all abbreviated. Burger King appears as B K, but KFC is OK. A spell search on 'Burger' correctly returns 'B K'. Setting all labels as uppercase doesn't work though. I've tried different options (latin1, lower-case in mkgmap and upcase, codepage in osm2mp) but still the same problem. No such problem viewing the map in mapsource. I use osm2mp.pl to generate the mp file and the same mp file works OK when compiled at mapcenter2. Attached are screenshots of mkgmap and mapcenter2 generated maps for comparison. best regards, nyem
