Peter,

I have found that if the map size (width and height in pixels) aspect ratio does not exactly match the map extents (map units) aspect ratio the map extents are adjusted.

I'm working with MapScript and to get exact scale pdf map I have to set map size first and then extent and then scale to get good results.

I hope this helps.

I'm generating dynamically Map Object, with with a certain extent, in the concrete example

In generated Map object uses the WMS client functionality to call WMS services. Anyway, the BBOX get's slightly changed, so that the original scale of 1:100000 gets changed to approx 1:100103, since it calls the WMS services with
629382.807906257,4984062.02007212,655206.168404203,5019102.33385548
as can be taken from the web server log files:

mmm.mmm.mmm.mmm - - [24/Jul/2014:12:25:58 +0200] "GET /author/services/ows.php?PROJECT=ancitel&MAP=catasto_reti&LANG=xw&OGSTAT=ot3cp0i7qmph4guuof75702m70&RESOLUTION=96&LAYERS=dtm,uso_lombardia,strade_lombardia,g_limiti_amministrativi,g_label,g_0707,g_0704&REQUEST=GetMap&SERVICE=WMS&FORMAT=image/png%3B+mode%3D8bit&STYLES=,,,,,,&HEIGHT=1323&VERSION=1.1.1&SRS=EPSG:32632&WIDTH=975&BBOX=629382.807906257,4984062.02007212,655206.168404203,5019102.33385548&TRANSPARENT=TRUE&EXCEPTIONS=application/vnd.ogc.se_inimage HTTP/1.1" 200 678803 "-" "MapServer/6.4.1 libcurl/7.19.7"

This change in scale is beyound te axpected tolerance in this particular use case, where technical data must be plotted in a PDF file.

Any help is appreciated. Obvioulsly, I can fetch the WMS services in my code and overlay them "by hand". Anyway, for a couple of reasons this was the preferred approach.

Regards,

Peter
