[Geomoose-users] Help; is there anybody that knows how to use a DFX or KML in Geomoose?

[James Klassen]

Read support means support for reading that file type.  GDAL is also
included in MS4W so you probably wouldn't need OSGeo4W on the server.

I haven't tried using DXF directly in MapServer.  I have used AutoCAD
generated layers both as shp (including text converted to polygons)  and as
the DWG plotted to a PNG + world file and then served as a raster via
MapServer.
