<div dir="ltr">For me it isn't, as I use a lot of tiff files, icons and images in general.

<br>Maybe it is useful when you only have to render vector data ?! it could render the features faster if it uses an 8bit value..I'm just thinking out loud, I could be talking non-sense.</div><div class="gmail_extra">

<p dir="ltr">I see that you got that from the demo example, <a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/geomoose/browser/geomoose2/branches/geomoose-2.6/conf/mapbook.xml#L102" target="_blank">http://trac.osgeo.org/geomoose/browser/geomoose2/branches/geomoose-2.6/conf/mapbook.xml#L102</a> I'm wondering if the documentation should be updated in <a href="http://www.geomoose.org/docs/mapbook.html#map-source" target="_blank">http://www.geomoose.org/docs/mapbook.html#map-source</a> or in the adding a layer section or the geomoose_globals.map section of <a href="http://www.geomoose.org/howto/layer.html" target="_blank">http://www.geomoose.org/howto/layer.html</a></p>
<p dir="ltr">Is there a reason to include the FORMAT parameter in the mapbook? </p>

>> Unfortunately, I still get that error even with your settings.<br>
>> I am using 6.2.1. It appears like it is hardcoded somewhere, dunno. The mapfile is quite straightforward, no complicated stuff. The only version which works (but does not display png icons well) is the one from the first emails. Did not see this type of errors before. Strange.<br>
