Having finally accepted that I didn't have the time or the patience to get to grips with using Therion to draw up a survey, I looked around for a standard vector drawing package. There was no way I was forking out hundreds of pounds for Adobe Illustrator, but Google turned up a free, open source equivalent; Inkscape http://inkscape.org/
I gave it a try and was quickly impressed. Intuitive and easy to use with only minimal manual reading required. I could import centrelines from Survex, sketch around them, add text and stuff dead easily. Then the result can be exported to PDF. I just thought I'd let people know about this free tool. My finished survey is here: http://www.ukcaving.com/wiki/index.php/File:Cabsav_survey_v1.pdf
