I guess one needs to read between the lines.  The docs do say that the 
software knows how to translate names, I didn't realise that meant that 
the bits on the CDROM actually contained the filename in disguise and 
that "_conform.map" was just a red herring :-)

Good, now to squeeze the CDROM onto 280Meg...
