[Mapserver-users] PDF How to for Perl Mapscript?

[Lowell Filak]

To create PDF's there are two basic options:
1) "Build true vector pdf's using the shp2pdf program" - SL.
2) "Use pdflib in conjunction with MapServer raster output to build a
PDF" -SL.

For #1 a "system" call could be used.
For #2 Perl has the following interface to pdflib -

If choosing PHP I believe there is a Howto located in the wiki.
