I checked the map_c and realized I had made a silly mistake. I have a working map which consists of a layer of map_c over a layer of map_h, both the same size. I can play with the transparency of the layers to see both the rivers/ lakes and the height of the terrain.
When I made the map_c from the working map by blending the layers, I forgot to make the top layer 100% opaque and as a result, I got an off-white/ faint gray map, instead of a white one!!! :oops:
I made a new map_c and checked it over after enlarging it. There were still some gray spots. I have no idea where they came from, but I messed with the histogram control, as Redwulf suggested and blitzed them out.
I discovered that I have to "tidy" the map_c a lot because the neat lines I thought I had drawn in suddenly don't look so neat at 400% size increase. So I will try the map_c toolbox program again in a few days.
