I'm using C++ and tend to stick what I already know (which is GD and ImageMagick) but will check out CImg as well. > Is there a compelling reason why you aren't just using UMN > MapServer? It supports AGG rendering now. If you can provide me with an UMN MapServer style that looks even remotely as good as Mapnik state of the art, I will consider it ;-) I have meanwhile found out that, trivially, I only have to patch the Map class's fixAspectRatio method to change the width/height of the map instead of changing the geo bbox to fit the aspect ratio. This will make Mapnik return a map that has a different pixel size from what was requested, but covers the exact bbox requested. After that, I can use any bitmap graphics lib to stretch/shrink the bitmap into shape.
