Any ideas? Hi Jan, For polygons you could use a small negative buffer to shrink the polygon slightly. You can do this in postgis, and you might be able to do it with mapserver if geos is compiled in. See: http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-48.html No, that is not what I meant. I'm looking for a trick for mapserver to color a linestring differently when drawing over a linestring that it has already drawn in a previous layer.

Re: [mapserver-users] Still impossible to force labels inside their polygons?
Label expressions might turn out to be useful here. Just thinking out loud... I mean we might be able to extend things and define expressions where you can write tests like the intersecting a label bbox against the parent shape. Expressions with multiple labels work like classes and are executed in order. Bigger issue is having to cache original geometries as part of the label cache. --Steve From: mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] on behalf of Brent Fraser [bfra...@geoanalytic.com] Sent: Wednesday, December 12, 2012 12:49 PM To: Mark Volz Cc: mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: Re: [mapserver-users] Still impossible to force labels inside their polygons? Mark, Sounds ok (it took me a while to realize you meant the BBOX of the polygons, not the label!). My world of sophisticated labeling would include some way of having the mapfile specify the order of applying the rules, but currently there is no way to do procedural things in a mapfile, just set parameters. On second thought, I guess the CLASS list evaluates things in a particular order; perhaps the same technique could be used in label placement: LABEL CHECKLABELFIT true # Check BBOX of label against polygon outline (not just BBOX of polygon) LOCATION# --- first label attempt (Case A,B) --- POSITION cc,ul,uc,ur END LOCATION# --- next label attempt (Case C) --- ANGLE auto END LOCATION# --- next label attempt (Case D) --- LEADER : END END END And I'd like to factor in preferring labeling in areas of no other linework, but that may take some thought...

I don't think CHECKLABELFIT would be mutually exclusive to any method of trying to find different label positions. In your comments you have the term If it doesn't fit. CHECKLABELFIT could be used to specify if we consider if the label fits according to the BBOX or the polygon. For example: A: Calculate the default location of the label in the polygon. If CHECKLABELFIT is on: only place the label if it falls inside the polygon. If CHECKLABELFIT is off: only place the label if it fits in the BBOX If the label could not be placed, and TRYALTERNATELABELS is on: B: Try different positions in the polygon UL,UC,UR, etc. If CHECKLABELFIT is on: only place the label if it falls inside the polygon. If CHECKLABELFIT is off: only place the label if it fits in the BBOX If a label still could not be placed: C: Rotate the label. If CHECKLABELFIT is on: only place the label if it falls inside the polygon. If CHECKLABELFIT is off: only place the label if it fits in the BBOX. If a label could not be placed after rotating the label D. Try using a leader line. / Place Polygon annotation outside polygon. Use situations: CHECKLABELFIT=FALSE, TRYALTERNATELABELS=FALSE: label the map as fast as possible. CHECKLABELFIT=TRUE, TRYALTERNATELABELS=FALSE: make sure labels fit in their polygons, but don't worry about labeling everything. CHECKLABELFIT=FALSE, TRYALTERNATELABELS=TRUE: try to label as many items as possible, use the BBOX as label ambiguity is okay.

Mark, A simple solution sounds good as long as it can fit into a strategic plan (I don't really have a plan for improving the polygon labeling, just a desire!). On major releases of Mapserver I try to push the limits of its cartography by comparing its output to hand-composed pdfs of Canadian Topo maps [1] (not fair I know). One of the stumbling blocks I've run into is the labeling of polygons and I've speculated on the use of rules-based labeling. Here's my list of rules from a comment on RFC 77 [2]. Allow for alternate label positions. While this is likely beyond the scope of RFC 77, perhaps it could be taken into account in design and implementation for later addition. Basically I'd like more flexibility (rule-based?) in labeling polygons: A.

Re: [mapserver-users] Problem with attribute query, multiple attributes
Honestly I don't think an index is going to help unless the attribute filter is
being passed to OGR processing. I'm not familiar enough with that driver to
know if that's done or not. Usually attribute queries are written a form the
driver understands. For PostGIS that means a bit of a where clause, for
Shapefiles it's the normal expression syntax. Again, not sure about OGR.
With large shapefiles attribute queries are inefficient, usually requiring full
table scans. Bob's example:
queryExp = ('[TOWN]' == '007-042') AND ('[TOWN]' == 'Acton'));
will guarantee a full scan because the expression is invalid. The same feature
can't have two values for TOWN.

Since OGR accesses the GDB via ESRI's API/Library, it may (should) take
advantage of attribute indexes built on the data with ArcMap.
You should make sure that the feature classes in the GDB have attribute indexes
on any column that you want to use as query criteria and that they have good
spatial indexes as well.
If you don't have access to ESRI tools, you will likely want to pre-process the
data by dumping it from the GDB to shapefiles or PostGIS, where you can create
all of the indexes that you need.

I am trying to set up an attribute query for a large parcel dataset

I am trying to query on the map_bk_lot and town attributes. I can
query on either one separately and get results, but I need to query on
both at the same time.
Here is my query expression:

The data is in an ESRI File GDB. I am using MS4w 3.0.4m MapServer
6.0.2, MapScript 6.1 for PHP
One other thing worth mentioning- if I use a small subset of features
(such as a town), the query will work without timing out. But I'm no
longer convinced that dataset size is the problem since it will query
on one attribute.
Any ideas what's going wrong here?
A tip that might come in handy someday, if not in this case, could be to create
an attribute index on your vector field (see example in
http://www.gdal.org/ogr/drv_shapefile.html); I've done this before and it's
improved attribute queries in MapServer significantly. You can generate one
through an ogrinfo command with the sql switch.
Sorry I cannot provide exact FileGDB examples at the moment.

Re: [mapserver-users] Displaying multiple labels with the same lat/long
Not sure about clustering, but there may be other options as well: You might be able to simply use POSITION AUTO and give these labels a high priority. MapServer will place them. If you need markers in this case you'll need to draw those separately to avoid marker collisions. So, one layer for points and the other for high-priority labels. Version 6.2 supports multiple labels per feature. If you can de-normalize your data so you have 1 point plus multiple columns of companies (e.g. company1, company2, etc...) then you can use this approach. There's also leader support when things get really tight.

Re: [mapserver-users] MapServer Layer Filter not applying to WFS
This is known issue, but it's a bigger deal with shapefiles. The WFS filters
essentially replace the defined filter, they are not additive. This is true for
all drivers. This would need to be an enhancement, but It would be tricky to do
so I think given the variety of filter types.
With RDBMS you'd just encode the filter in the data/connection information. The
workaround in this case would be to use an OGR layer to access the shapefile
instead which will allow you to apply SQL-like syntax at the driver level. See
http://mapserver.org/input/vector/ogr.html.

Hi there, mailing list,
We have a customer sending us data with sensitive information. The most
convenient way for us is to receive the complete data set and applying a filter
in the mapfile.
The layer definition looks like this:
LAYER
NAME Traseer
GROUP TelMe
TYPE LINE
DATA TM_Nett/TM_Traces
FILTER('[type]' != Bru)
#Styling and more etc
END
This works flawlessly using PHP Mapscript and the mapserver WMS service. The
data is not accessible. The problem occurs when querying by WFS. The Mapserver
WFS service seems to omit the FILTER information and opens up for selecting
items with the type Bru, which is a serious security flaw.
I'd consider this as a bug, although I'm not certain. If anyone please can
confirm this, or show me how to make mapserver filter data in WFS as well, I'd
be much obliged.

Re: [mapserver-users] MapServer Layer Filter not applying to WFS
One other idea. I believe you can avoid using OGR by adding your filter to
class expressions and setting a template (which enables queries) at the class
level. Class expressions are always checked. If you have one class it's easy:
LAYER
NAME Traseer
GROUP TelMe
TYPE LINE
DATA TM_Nett/TM_Traces
CLASS
EXPRESSION'[type]' != Bru)
# Styling and more etc
TEMPLATE 'void'
END
# No template set at the layer level
END
Might consider WMS-only vs. WFS-only layer defs to simplify life if you have
multiple classes.

[mapserver-users] FW: [OSGeo-Discuss] News: NASA World Wind Selects MapServer as Engine
Cool news... Steve -Original Message- From: discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mailto:discuss-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Jeff McKenna Sent: Wednesday, October 17, 2012 9:29 AM To: osgeo Subject: [OSGeo-Discuss] News: NASA World Wind Selects MapServer as Engine (I think this press release is of interest to the OSGeo community) -- FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE *NASA World Wind Server to Leverage MapServer Open Source Engine* Moffett Field, CA. 16 October 2012 The NASA World Wind project team has selected the MapServer Open Source mapping engine to serve its many digital raster formats to World Wind clients. MapServer will serve images and raw data through the Internet by various Open Geospatial Consortium (OGC) standards. Providing large amounts of spatial data (including world-wide coverage of digital elevation models, DEMs, and aerial imagery) to World Wind clients requires a high performance architecture that will now use the MapServer engine, caching of images, and load-balanced servers. Technical expertise for MapServer will be provided by Mapgears (Chicoutimi, QC) and Gateway Geomatics (Lunenburg, NS). Due to MapServer compliance with OGC standards and World Wind Server standards, except for possibly the increased performance provided by MapServer, this transition will be entirely transparent to the World Wind user community. MapServer will allow the NASA World Wind a smooth transition to a mature Open Source engine, said Patrick Hogan, the NASA Project Manager of World Wind. Daniel Morissette, President of Mapgears, added We are thrilled to have this opportunity to work with the NASA World Wind team to help push the limits of the technology and to contribute with MapServer to the next generation of NASA World Wind Servers that will deliver the data of organizations around the world for years to come. Jeff McKenna, Director of Gateway Geomatics, said Our long-time focus on assisting organizations publish their spatial data through MapServer, especially on the Windows platform, adds a key piece of an innovative solution with the Mapgears team. Together we will help to allow the World Wind community to visualize and analyze large amounts of data efficiently through MapServer. Jeff also believes that this project will help both the MapServer and World Wind communities grow. About NASA World Wind - NASA World Wind (http://goworldwind.org/) is a three-dimensional geographic information system developed by the National Aeronautics Space Administration (NASA), its partners, and the Open Source community. The World Wind client is an interactive 3D geographic visualization system, where Earth and other planets can be explored in their full 3D native context. World Wind was released as Open Source in August 2004, and is being extensively used by corporations and government agencies throughout the world.

Re: [mapserver-users] Starting label from start-line
Steve, I don't think this is possible. The GEOMTRANSFORM is a style-level option geared towards adding arrow heads and stuff like that. It has no bearing on labeling. We'd need a label origin or something like that and I don't know of a way to do that. One thing to try would be using the REPEATDISTANCE parameter and giving it a ridiculously large value (in pixels). That might place just a single label at the beginning of a line and no others.

Re: [mapserver-users] retrieve map coordinates with different EPSG
Assuming you're sending the request in pixels, along with a map extent, MapServer will convert the point based on the SRS of the extent you passed. I'm thinking that won't get you what you want and I'm not sure of a way to do so. The various extent tags have projection capabilities built in but the point ones don't.

Re: [mapserver-users] MODE=legendicon GROUP Layers
Legend icon only works with layers. Groups are just too ambiguous to uniquely identify the class to be rendered. Groups don't have to be organized by scale ranges. Often they link related layers, for example a bunch of road feature types. I think It would be possible to add support to see if a group name can resolve to a single layer based on scale but that doesn't exist in the code at this point.

Re: [mapserver-users] Still impossible to force labels inside their polygons?
It's tough to know what I'm looking at from the picture. What does the layer definition look like? At the moment polygon label point computation tries a couple of approaches get a label point inside the polygon: 1) compute a center of gravity 2) if that computation doesn't work (e.g. point is too close to the edge) then a scanline-based process is used to sample possible positions. The mid-point of the longest y sample is used. It's always trade-off with speed and the above seems a happy medium.

Re: [mapserver-users] Are WMS GetFeatureInfo results ordered by distance?
Order is determined by the order of the features in the underlying data source. To do what you suggest, a good idea BTW, we'd need to change things a bit: - need to log distance computation - need to develop a sort utility - need to alter certain query code to apply a feature count at the very end, after all candidates are found and a distance sort is done Probably RFC worthy.

Yup, sorry it's Perl. The getResult($) should be getResult($i). Syntax for PHP

Thanks a lot, Steve.
However, I had tried this out before, but getResult($)? I think this is Perl,
no? In PHP this would be different?
Sorry for a dumb question…
Stefan
The query code underwent major changes between 5.6 and 6.0 and one casualty
was query processing like you're doing. On the bright side it's much more
straight forward now. The general steps for a layer-based query is now just:
$layer-queryByRect($map, $rect); # layer is left open after a query operation
for($i=0; $i$layer-getNumResults(); $i++) {
$shape = $layer-getShape($layer-getResult($)); # much simpler
# do something with the shape
}
I see the MapScript/Swig query docs are woefully out of date. I'll file a
ticket on that...

Re: [mapserver-users] Mapserver Template - Conditionals
Hi Donald: To answer your questions... 1. You can't do an AND with [item ...] tags. They are single item only. We'd really need to introduce true conditionals into the templates. It's done a bit for legend templates but I don't know how much work is necessary to extend that. One work around idea would be to create a compound item if using a RDMS data source and write patterns against that. 2. Consider filing ticket for that one. Covers item 4 too. 3. I actually had something along those lines in mind at one point. I'll have to check my old notes. Note that if the patterns are mutually exclusive you can just write: [item name=A pattern=1 format=Output1][item name=B pattern=2 format=Output2][item name=C pattern=3 format=Output3 nullformat=Output4] The default format would just be the null format for one of these. But I agree this has it's limits...

I know it's possible to use item in a template as follows: [item name=featurecode pattern=10021 format=osgb:themeBuildings/osgb:themeosgb:descriptiveGroupBuilding/o sgb:descriptiveGroup escape=none] But, is it possible to do something like: [item featurecode=10021 pattern=1 AND item lineitem=12345 pattern=2 format=.] That is, returns true of both, or more, criteria are met. The only other way I can think of doing this is in the SQL query that runs on the layer. 2. Also, when I use use [item ...] and the criteria isn't met, it still causes an additional blank line to be created in the output file. It would be quite good if it did not create the cr/lf. Maybe nullformat could be used to enforce this in some way but nullformat= still creates a blank line. 3. It would be nice if the item tag could also deal with a case/select statement e.g. [item name=A pattern=1 format=Output1] ELSE [item name=B pattern=2 format=Output2] ELSE [item name=C pattern=3 format=Output3] DEFAULT [item name=D pattern=4 format=Output4] 4.

Re: [mapserver-users] Can Map Server serve non WMS services?
We would have to know more about what the extensions do and how they are implemented to comment more in detail. There are certainly options. For example, you could use MapScript OWS support and develop a custom service that way. Another option would be to use GetFeatureInfo request paired with different responses (via template perhaps) to change the nature of the information returned. Depending on how the extensions are implemented you might also be able to support the different response types using mod-rewrite or something like that.

Hi Thomas,
I'm all for simplifying the translation workflow. I tend to dislike
the current one we have setup because it is difficult for
translators to keep track of what has been added/modified in the
english version, resulting in outdated translated docs which in my
opinion is worse than having no translation at all.

Hello Jeff, hello all,
# First think to understand
I praise the Mapserver community and the team behind the engine.
I'm a big fan of Mapserver and Sphinx and I've always love the
really
great
documentation but I know people who deal only with there native
language
to
do the job. So translation is a core part of a project to extend
popularity
accross countries (althought Mapserver popularity is already
established)
My motivation is to deal with the french translation with i18n and
not
with
RST.
I want to make think better, the way we do it is good but can be
improve.
Why? Some thoughts to explain below
# Advantages
1. Fulfillment
Really important for me because a community is based on humans who
search small and big achievements and it's more easy with i18n to
measure the
job.
Imagine one rst file of 1000 lines (around 100 lines of empty
lines or special rst declarations)
You generate is equivalent in pot file.
The number of string to translate is 430
Offline:
Step by step you see what you've done and can by example, see that
you've done 86 lines so, 20% of the job is done for the file.
Your objective to go until 30%. When you reach it, you're happy.
You've
done
10% more of the file translation.
Online:
See this online app based on pottle for the Qgis community. You
can see
the
http://translate.qgis.org/fr/qgis-user-guide/ example.
In this case, you can make a survey of users who contribute, you
can
review
with others, you now if a file translation is completed. You can
distribute
task between the community of users and not only of advanced users
/ developpers.
You can have a dedicated community of translators who care about
content
and
not about the way to use sphinx and others technical things.
2. Separate presentation from contents
When you generate pot files, the string length is quite short. You
don't have to care too much about rst indent : you will not break
anything.
If the presentation change, you content don't. I'm thinking about
the
annual
change for FOSS4G image. You have to backport it manually with a
merge in every langage version.
3. History and maintainability
## The typical workflow now
You cut and paste a rst file and you make the translation. Ok it's
nice!!
Why does I need to care about i18n? This guy is crazy!!
Because now imagine, you've done the translation 3 years ago (your
community
said do it and it was done).
The content was in english (the letter are use to represent a
block of content in master version and number for content of
translated example)

Re: [mapserver-users] mapserver fastcgi warnings when msQueryByPoint() Search returns no results
Not a fcgi expert, but looking at the code any error calls writeError() in mapserv.c which ends with exit(0). So as written the behavior you're seeing is expected. I don't believe there is much overhead with restarting though.

Everything works as expected when querying a point that returns a result or simply panning or zooming the map. However, when a user clicks on the map and the query returns no results the fastcgi terminates the pid and creates a new one. Is this normal behavior ? I am very much a novice with fastcgi but it seems like this will slow things down and is counter intuitive to using fastcgi.

Re: [mapserver-users] One template for every text type
The QUERYABLE parameter was never implemented so you still must define a layer TEMPLATE to mark a layer as being queryable.

That's not to say the references are completely current. ;-) If you do run a across missing information or whatever it's easiest to just file a ticket, or drop a note to the mailing list. To answer your other questions: * [bbox] is not a standard template tag. However, if you set a variable called bbox in your query request then that variable is available in template output (HTML escaped first to prevent cross-site scripting). * [shpext] and other feature specific tags can only be used within a [feature] block or in the old-style feature templates. Perhaps this can be made clearer in the docs.

Re: [mapserver-users] will Mapserver ever support SLD inside Mapfile?
Hi Giovanni: Inline SLD has been talked about and was on the roadmap for 6.0 I believe. Sadly it didn't get done for that release and out resident SLD expert has had precious little time to spend on the project in recent months. I think it's going to take a particularly motivated developer or user to make it happen (patches gladly accepted). Conceptually it doesn't seem that difficult. That is, defining an SLD block within a class or a style or should it be within a layer. I guess that's where the complications lie. It really depends on the SLD capabilities already part of MapServer. Seems to me that if you can read SLD from a WMS request then pulling from the mapfile proper shouldn't be difficult.

Your regex only allows for 1 character after ogc_fid. I'd rewrite as:
'^ogc_fid=[0-9]{1,5}$'
This restricts the number a bit more, plus doesn't allow characters before or

Re: [mapserver-users] Anaimated images as map sources
I'm not an AGG expert but that's probably not the component in play here anyway. Presumably whatever the source imagery it would/should be considered a raster dataset. I guess I'd look into how GDAL deals with animated input and then figure out if that can be configured through MapServer. I guess it wouldn't surprise me if GDAL considered individual frames as bands. Maybe that's the way to think about.

They have the separate images available as well, which I would need to assemble after clipping into a image, Hmmm, maybe a layer per time index, ten hit that from the CGI through MapServer, then into a animated image for use in the map.

Re: [mapserver-users] Mapserver/PostGIS Faster Initial Load Time
I've noticed latency the first time mapserv is executed, presumably as a result of loading into memory and dynamic linking. Once the OS caches everything it's nice and snappy. I tend to see that only on my development versions though because on our production boxes the executables are hit often enough that they are always in memory. Unless access is very infrequent I'd think latency due to loading a binary would be rare. I suppose you could simulate traffic on the server-side to make sure everything is memory resident. That is, make a small request every 5 minutes or whatever using cron or the Windows equivalent. I'm not experienced enough with PostGIS to know if there's any tuning to do there. Maybe others have ideas.

For this particular example, the whole setup (server and client) is on a XP SP3 machine with 4 Gb memory. From the point when the mapping page is requested, the time taken to start seeing tiles returned is about 15 seconds. After that initial time, the images come in thick and fast. I'm pretty sure that it's the first load of mapserv.exe and, if the requested layer is via postgis, the first load of postgis. I'm trying to think of ways to speed up that initial load like, as I said in the last post, requesting a map tile on the fly (and hidden) so that mapserv.exe has been run once and is in memory ready for the next, or first 'real', request. It's probably the only downside to a system that I've got running like a little sweetie just now. It's basically a classic asp website running on IIS but I can switch between IIS and Apache for the mapping WMS/WFS. Both are quite fast and both run FastCGI though Apache seems a little more stable when a lot of tiles are requested with a lot of fast map drags; sometimes IIS gives up on individual request. Whether IIS or Apache, there's still this initial load delay of about 15 seconds. This may be something that I have to live with but I'm trying to improve that initial load if possible. To go back to your original question, my guess is that the load time is a server issue rather than a client problem though I may be wrong.

Re: [mapserver-users] Scripted geoprocessing
Hi Sam: MapScript does have GEOS functions built into it so you might be able to use just those. I remember doing something along these line using Perl MapScript. I don't have the script handy but I think I used a hash of shapes based on the attribute value in question. For each shape you simple add all the parts to the right hash element. Could either use the Union operator or just add the parts. Then once you have processed every feature in the shapefile(s) you do a buffer(0) on each of the hash elements with I think effectively does a dissolve. Of course you need to save the dissolved shape someplace too. In Perl this is not a very long script: a loop to build the hash of shapes and another loop to process the hash.

Re: [mapserver-users] Shift of half a pixel
What version are you talking about? How do you know there is a shift? That is, what is your reference? Is it possible there's a difference in the bounding box model?

You might be be able to use AJAX to access the XML and parse it using JavaScript. That's one idea. You could also consider offline parsing of the XML. For example a cron job could be run every so often to extract the necessary value into a text file. You could then include that value into template or even mapfile content.

[mapserver-users] RE: legend not visible with maxscaledenom set
How are you creating the legend? One work-around would be to fake a map associated with a call to create a legend. That is, set EXTENT and SIZE to values that would generate a computed scale below your MaxScaleDenom. I've done that when using mode=legend where you set mapext and mapsize as needed. Otherwise we'd really need to implement an override parameter (perhaps a processing directive) to ignore scale when compiling the legend.

Shp2img already provides this capability and is more portable than MapScript. I think ideally we'd develop a validator that spits out all errors but that's probably not possible either since many common error states (like a missing END or quote) will trigger a whole bunch of false positives. Best to take it an error at a time for most cases. This might be useful more for between version migration where the mapfile is structurally sound but keywords have changed. We could write a dumber version of shp2img that only tries to load the mapfile and report an error but I'm not sure it's worth the effort.

It the logo/graphs exist as images then you can just use symbols as annotation. How you'd do that depends on version. In 5.6 and earlier you'd use an annotation layer: LAYER ...

Hello All: I am in the process of migrating from MapServer 5.4 (FGS95 on Linux) to MapServer 6 (MS4W3 on Windows Server 2008 R2). Most things are migrating well however I have a peculiar TrueType font rendering issue where the readability on the new system is far less than on the old system. I have attached two screenshots taken at the same scale to illustrate the issue. In these images the parish labels are Arial Bold Italic 6 pt., the interstate shields are Arial 8 pt., and US highway shields are Arial Narrow 7 pt. The TTF files and the MAP files were copied directly from the old system to the new system. I have tried with antialias on and off in the label definition and with a couple of different AGG image output formats but there are no visible differences. I would really appreciate any suggestions or pointers where to investigate. Thanks!

RE: [mapserver-users] Truetype font rendering changes?
It looks like the effective size of the text has changed. What happens if you play with the font size in 6.0 and increase it a bit? -Original Message- From: mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org [mailto:mapserver-users-boun...@lists.osgeo.org] On Behalf Of Johan Forsman Sent: Monday, May 07, 2012 10:32 AM To: Lime, Steve D (DNR); Donald Kerr; mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: RE: [mapserver-users] Truetype font rendering changes? No. Unfortunately none of the sites are accessible from the outside. The best I can do are screenshots. I attached two examples from the same Linux server. One is from the FGS95 (MS54) environment and the other (MS60) is under the main system environment. Both samples are of Arial Narrow 7 point, and the image is rendered using the following output format: OUTPUTFORMAT NAME 'agg_q' DRIVER AGG/PNG IMAGEMODE RGB FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_FORCE=ON FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_DITHER=OFF FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_COLORS=256 END I freely confess to not knowing much about the various output formats. This one I picked from the list some time long ago. I tried other formats also, both 8- and 24-bit and both the AGG and Cairo drivers, but I have not noticed any clear differences. Thanks for any suggestions and I'll be glad to collect additional information if needed. Johan. -Original Message- From: Lime, Steve D (DNR) [mailto:steve.l...@state.mn.us] Sent: Monday, May 07, 2012 9:43 AM To: Johan Forsman; Donald Kerr; mapserver-users@lists.osgeo.org Subject: RE: [mapserver-users] Truetype font rendering changes?

Thank you for the suggestion however I regret to report that there is no discernible difference in the appearance of the text when using cairopng in the Windows environment. I have also created a test case using MS6 on the same Linux server (but outside the FGS95 environment) as my MS5.4 and the text is rendered exactly the same as on the Windows platform, with the same reduced legibility.
