[Geomoose-users] Print to PDF - quick work around

Rick,
I was able to get the DRGS to print when I have the image format specified in
the map file as such.
MAP
NAME 'LMIC DRG'
#SIZE 800 650
STATUS ON
#EXTENT 521296 156295 674419 295679
UNITS FEET
IMAGETYPE JPEG
TRANSPARENT TRUE

My other question now is; I am trying to get the LMIC's USGS DRG's to print
but I get an error when I try that. I have narrowed the culprit down to the
PrintWMS.map file in Resources. The aerial photos from LMIC come in as
jpeg's and the printwms.map can handle because of the reference to this image
type("wms_format" "image/jpeg". However, the DRG's are sent from LMIC as
PNG's. The printwms.map cannot handle these unless I change the "wms_format"
to image/png. When I do this then the aerial photos don't print.
Is there a way to adjust the printwms.map file to accept both of these
formats from LMIC? I would guess this would be a problem for everyone trying
to print these. Although maybe a lot of people have not tried to print out
the drg's on a map.
I have included the printwms.map file for reference.

Rick,
This is one of the gotcha's with the demo's. Currently there is only one
configuration.php file for both demo's. I decided rather than create the
extra files I would need to get both working I would just leave it working
for the county demo.
If you want to get the printing working in both demo's you would need to
duplication the configuration.php and print.php files and change the path in
the configuration.php file to reference the state_demo mapfiles. Then
change the include file in the print.php file to point to the other
configuration file (something like config_statedemo.php). I don't have the
files with me know but if you need an example I could create one for you.
Hope this helps,
Brian

I am having problems with the Print to PDF in the State Demo example.
If I run the Print to PDF in the County Demo application it works perfectly
but when I try it in the State Demo application, I get this error message.
Available Printing Formats:
Warning: [MapServer Error]: msLoadMap():
(/ms4w/apps/geomoose/maps_countydemo/./parks/parks_8bit.map) in
C:\ms4w\apps\GeoMOOSE\htdocs\php\print.php on line 177
Warning: Failed to open map file
/ms4w/apps/geomoose/maps_countydemo/./parks/parks_8bit.map in
C:\ms4w\apps\GeoMOOSE\htdocs\php\print.php on line 177
Fatal error: Call to a member function setSize() on a non-object in
C:\ms4w\apps\GeoMOOSE\htdocs\php\print.php on line 178
It seems like it is referencing a path location to the county demo
application as show by the path. I haven't been able to find a location that
states where to look for the files when it prints.
Any assistance would be helpful since it seems like it is a problem with the
State Demo application since the County demo works. Also I do have FPDF
installed since the County Demo works for me.

Rick,
Your right I have never tried to print the DRGs. Dan would know better
than I would what your options might be to get around this. It might
involve code changes to print.php.

Brian,
Thanks for the information. I was able to create a configuration.php
and print.php file for each of the applications I have and then just
changed the reference to the print.php file in my application.xml file
in htdocs.
My other question now is; I am trying to get the LMIC's USGS DRG's to
print but I get an error when I try that. I have narrowed the culprit
down to the PrintWMS.map file in Resources. The aerial photos from LMIC
