This is an older version of MapServer, MS4W 2.3.1, MapServer 5.2.1.

Using a global file with the outputformat params:

        OUTPUTFORMAT
                NAME 'agg/png'
                DRIVER AGG/PNG
                IMAGEMODE RGBA
                FORMATOPTION "TRANSPARENT=TRUE"
        END 

        OUTPUTFORMAT
                NAME 'print'
                DRIVER "GD/GIF"
                MIMETYPE "image/gif"
                IMAGEMODE PC256
                EXTENSION "gif"
                TRANSPARENT ON
        END

-So we're going to gif on the printout.

Not sure what you meant by label output.  But here's what I see- on the
web application, the labels are as they should be- they have the
background halo.  On the printed map, the label text itself appears, but
no background halo.

Yes, I'm absolutely sure that's the code being used in the .map file.

Bob,

Also, what are you getting for label output in you case? More info would

help diagnose this.

Thanks,
