[mapserver-users] Large scale PDF output on Windows

[Carl Anderson]

Maning,

We have built a custom system that builds large format maps using UMN 
Mapserver output as SVG and some extra static template stuff

An example can be seen at
http://wms.co.fulton.ga.us/apps/custommaps/select_type.php?view_layers=-layer=streets-layer=daccess-layer=hillshade-layer=buildings-layer=current_parcels-layer=subdiv-layer=city_limits-layer=ponds-layer=streams&objectid=xxxxxx&xmin=2171270.340465&ymin=1329959.560581&xmax=2191269.791276&ymax=1343188.595973

A different map can be pulled from
http://wfs.co.fulton.ga.us/apps/tilemaps/get_tile.php?intile=136101


We are converting the system to be entirely mapserver SVG output based, 
with the conversion to PDF as the last step.  the maps are vector maps 
and not raster maps so they are less limited by map size.


If you want the PHP code that assembles these maps let me know.
