[gdal-dev] ogr2ogr PDF

[Andreas Neumann]

Hi Paul, 

As usual, there are several ways: 

1. You can either create a new attribute called "OGR_STYLE" (see section
2.8 in the spec) that contains the style definition (see chapter 2 in
the spec) 

2. or you create an external .ofs (OGR feature style side-file) as
described in section 2.7 of the spec 

3. or you use the OGR support Classes as described in chapter 3 of the
spec. 

All information is in the spec, incl. some examples. 

I would probably use options 1 or 2 in your case. Option one can be done
in an SQL-Select query, where you create the OGR_STYLE attribute on the
fly with your query. 

Greetings, 

Andreas
