Hi Rubén

Thanks for your reply.

I'll make a personal assessment.
- Trying to get at a title page which should look fine both on portrait and landscape mode is not a top requirement.
- If this title page is heavier (because of inserted paths), this is not a major problem.
These two things are compensated by the fact that I can use a much easier code, using % and not having to worry about positioning with excruciating precision some tiny elements.

Of course, I understand that it's everybody choice and that the use of "complex" code can bring some technical but - for me - not decisive advantages. At least I am happy to get a confirmation that the "plain" method presents no hidden technical drawback and that I can deal with svg having just to take care of an usual image display.
