[mapserver-users] Using mapserver to print a large "plotter" sized image

Hello all, I am trying to figure out a way I can use Mapserver to print out
a large image, one that will look good coming off a plotter (probably around
300 dpi).
There is an open ticket
(http://mapserver.org/development/rfc/ms-rfc-55.html) for
something somewhat related but it offers some good advice on what I am
trying to do, however the maximum size that Mapserver allows you to request
is 2048 x 2048, and my current viewport is 757 which scales like: 757 (old
size) * 300 (new resolution that is good for 300 dpi according to ticket) /
72 (old resolution) = 3154.1666666666666666666666666667 which is way to big
to request from Mapserver.

Does anyone have experience with this?

Thanks!
