Hi Sasanka

The background map (green-yellow-purple) is a tif image
the other layers are shapefiles
if you installed the demo, you can find the files in 
\cartoweb3\projects\demoCW3\server_conf\demoPlugins\data\ or  ...\demoCW3\data\

you can use any kind of images for the background layer, you simply have to set 
the correct parameters in your mapfile

for Pdf export, you dont need anything special, but be sure your base_url is 
set correctly, otherwise you will get an error once the new window open to see 
the pdf (the path to the created pdf will be wrong)

regards
Oliver

  Hello All,

  I am a beginner in Cartoweb and hence have some trivial Questions
  1) What is the map that is used in the Demo, i mean, what format is it? and 
how to obtain that given that i have a gif and shp format for my City.The key 
map is just a png format which i can obtain but what about the main map?

  2) Also, for Pdf export, apart from including the plugin in cartoclient and 
cartoserver, is there anything else that is to be done? 


  thanks in Advance,

  Sasanka
