Hi, I was just searching for an option in the textsymbolizer to adjust the appearance of my labels. I want to set the character spacing to a user-defined value for labeling a wide area. I found this ticket: http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/121 http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/121 , but I'm not sure, if Dane and Michal were talking about the same thing. If I understand it right, then the buffer feature in mapserver creates a buffer around the whole label and not around every single letter.
These typographical setting could also be useful for other users or has someone already a workaround to get the same result? Perhaps these settings could also be useful: - all labels in caps or all in lowercase - word spacing - http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/131 http://trac.mapnik.org/ticket/131 (- something else?) cheers Jürgen -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Formatting-labels-tp20187577p20187577.html Sent from the Mapnik - Users mailing list archive at Nabble.com. _______________________________________________ Mapnik-users mailing list [email protected] https://lists.berlios.de/mailman/listinfo/mapnik-users
