Dear Bernhard and Frederick, I finally found the time to make some tests.
I tested your servers on both Linux (4gb of system RAM) and Windows Seven (2GB of system RAM, using a Virtual Machine). The GWC one is correctly recognized as "tiled" (the layers are shown in the "tilestes" tab) on both QGIS 1.7.1 and trunk. I was able to create A0 PDF outputs, adding the "Luftbild" layer and using the QGIS pdf printer (so I didn't used any external pdf printer). I tested up to 300 dpi. Under Windows with just 1GB of system RAM, when creating the A0 output at 300dpi, qgis crashed, so it may be very well a memory problem. I had no particular problems with the WMS server and the "raster:jena_2008" layer, when printing to A0 at 300 dpi. cheers -- Giovanni -- PS yes, at 300dpi/A0 it takes a lot (10 minutes or so) to create the PDF, but it works.
