<br>
I did a fix some time ago (<a
href="http://geomoose.org/trac/ticket/108">http://geomoose.org/trac/ticket/108</a>)
regarding using the alpha channel in Print_util.php. This fix is in
GeoMoose v2.4 so I'm confused...<br>

Some of these are vecot line

work perfectly in GeoMoose

compose a printable map,
these layers have a black
background which obscures
other layers and just plain
looks ugly. If I set the

goes away, but then I can’t
