Hi all

If I download a shapefile using a link like this:  WFS export link
<http://maps.gcc.tas.gov.au:8080/geoserver/GCC_cc/ows?service=WFS&version=1.0.0&request=GetFeature&typeName=GCC_cc%3ABuildings&maxfeatures=50&outputformat=SHAPE-ZIP>
  
the resulting shapefile has a huge DBF file associated with it. This is due
to white space padding for 255 length char fields.

Is this an issue that only I am having, or is it a GeoServer problem? I can
export the same file using org2ogr on the server, and it results in a
shapefile with char field lengths which are the same as the PostGIS table
backing it.

Regards,

Alex
