Jean David, 

I don't know the real answer to your question, but I will say that the 
imagemap support is quite incomplete.  There are many types of 
features not supported fully or even at all. 

Some work was done on this since 4.4 was released, so you could
try 4.6, but you will likely need to make some improvements to 
mapimagemap.c yourself.

Best regards,
