You don't need the terraformer for maps that are released as a grayscale image. You need the terraformer only for maps in SC4F format.

For importing a map correctly you may also need to install a Height Mod - check the map's description. Also a Rock Mod, a Water Colour Mod or a Terrain Mod can improve the appearence of your region.

Check the mapping forums or the Omnibus for details. I have released a map on the STEX (search for Macedonia), the readme contains detailed instructions on importing maps, and combining a Height Mod with Terrain Mods.
