[mapserver-users] Using mapserver to print a large "plotter" sizedimage

[Rahkonen Jukka]

Hi,

There is nowadays MAXSIZE that is used at MAP level.  Set it to 5000 and try again.

MAXSIZE [integer]
    Sets the maximum size of the map image. This will override the default value. For example, setting this to 2048 means that you can have up to 2048 pixels in both dimensions (i.e. max of 2048x2048).

Aihe: [mapserver-users] Using mapserver to print a large "plotter" sizedimage
 
Hello all, I am trying to figure out a way I can use Mapserver to print out
a large image, one that will look good coming off a plotter (probably around
300 dpi).
There is an open ticket
(http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-55.html) for
something somewhat related but it offers some good advice on what I am
trying to do, however the maximum size that Mapserver allows you to request
is 2048 x 2048, and my current viewport is 757 which scales like: 757 (old
size) * 300 (new resolution that is good for 300 dpi according to ticket) /
72 (old resolution) = 3154.1666666666666666666666666667 which is way to big
to request from Mapserver.

Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks!
