Ah. OK. I did wonder. The thbook docs imply that you only need to set two
of those variables, the other one will be calculated. I'l try again.



# size <width> <height> <units> . set map size in the atlas mode. If not 
specified, it                           
#will be calculated from page-setup and overlap. In map mode applies iff 
page-grid                               
#is on (M, A; default: 18 22.2 cm) 

#overlap <value> <units>        
# overlap <value> <units> .
set overlap size in paper units in the atlas mode or map margin in the map mode 
(M, A; default: 1 cm)            
                                        
# page-setup <dimensions> <units>              
# page-setup <dimensions> <units> . set page dimensions in this order: 
paper-width,                              
#paper-height, page-width, page-height, left-margin and top-margin. If not 
specified, it                         
#will be computed from size and overlap (A; default: 21 29.7 20 28.7 0.5 0.5 cm 
(A4))
