[mapserver-users] Reference obj & image file

[Stephen Woodbridge]

Vu,

Your work-a-round to this problem was good, but there is a much easier
way to do this that other might be interested in.

If you want a reference image of say 200 x 200 then edit your map file
and set the image SIZE 200 200 then use shp2img -m <mapfile> -o
reference.gif

and you are all done!

Oh, don't forget to change your SIZE back to its orginal.
