Some more info, this issue has the same symptoms as we have. The initial
description and the correct.png and wrong.png show the same rendering
issue we are seeing.
http://code.google.com/p/android/issues/detail?id=4153
We are still investigating this but at the moment do not even know what
those parts of these characters are called so it's tricky to find
information.
Can anyone on the list read these characters?
Thanks
Ian

Hi Thomas,
I was able to properly render the Hindi characters from the screenshot
you had previously provided (Wazirabad), however we are still unable to
render the Hindi text that I had provided earlier (Mexico City).
Is there any way you could provide an image showing a Hindi translation
for Mexico City from your map? This way I can match characters that I
know are not rendering properly on my side.
Thank You again for your help,
Peter Mallen

Thomas,
We are currently using fibidi 0.19.2 and can try the later versions.
I have just had a look at 0.19.4 and 0.19.5 and I am not sure how to
build them, there does not appear to be build instructions in them or a
configure script.
Have you (or anyone else on the list) built these for Linux?
Thanks
Ian

Peter,
We don't do any shaping directly inside mapserver, but rely on the
fribidi library to do that for us. Your mapfile definitions are correct
to activate this (i.e. it includes an LABEL.ENCODING parameter).
I'll leave it up to you to confirm that the image sample I sent you is
correct or not. If so, check that you have configured your mapserver
with fribidi enabled and uptodate (the supplied image was rendered with
0.19.2 . some stable distros use a very outdated fribidi version, so you
might need to upgrade manually) . If not, you can try with a bleeding
edge fribidi (0.19.5 was released a few days ago), and/or report the
issue or find help from the fribidi project directly.
please report back with your findings.

Peter,
You don't provide the rendering that mapserver is producing, so it's
difficult to compare. Is this rendering correct:

Hi Thomas,
I believe we are using fribidi but I am not sure which version, I will
look further into this and report back to with my findings.

axis order trouble

Hi,
I have been running TinyOWS r558 for quite a long time because it is
dealing almost right with the axis order of the projections I am
commonly using. Now I had a fast try with the current TinyOWS 1.1.0
version but unfortunately I realized that it is doing wrong thing by
flipping the axis with urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::3067. That system is
officially an Easting-Northing system and axis should not be flipped
ever. Also, TinyOWS does not flip the axes with
urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::2393 which is officially a Northing-Easting system
and axis should be flipped with WFS 1.1.0
I can see that TinyOWS is flipping the axis with WFS 1.1.0 if I I give
srsName=urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::3067 or if I do not give it at all, which
means the same because the uri-format is the default srsName. Axis
order is correct if I give it as srsName=EPSG:3067. With EPSG:2393 axis
are not flipped with either srsName format. What should be done next is
to flip the behaviours of 2393 and 3067.
What is the logic that TinyOWS is using when it decides whether the axis
should be flipped or not for WFS 1.1.0? Can I manipulate TinyOWS
somehow myself to behave in a correct way with EPSG:2393 and EPSG:3067
by editing something in the PostGIS or in TinyOWS sources? Another
question is that is it guaranteed that axis order is handled similarly
everywhere, also in filters? I mean that can I trust that once TinyOWS
someday will again send urn:ogc:def:crs:EPSG::2393 data as
Northing-Easting with WFS 1.1.0 it will then also treat the GML3 filters
so that is knows that first comes Northing and then Easting? Does the
srsName format have the same meaning if filters, so that if short
srsName is used then axis order is always Easting-Northing or lon-lat,
but when the uri format is used then TinyOWS is trying to check the
official axis with WFS 1.1.0?

You could create a GDAL VRT file for your image in which you associate a
color table to the raster band, and then point your MapServer layer
definition to the VRT.

Message-ID: <50CF1B06.2060902 at terrestris.de>
Content-Type: text/plain; charset="iso-8859-15"; Format="flowed"
Hi,
I have a question regarding the transparency of my mapfile together with
mapserver 6.2.
The documentation tells me, that using the Parameter IMAGECOLOR together
with TRANSPARENT ON in OUTPUTFORMAT, the resulting image of a wms
request should have the defined color transparent.
I tried different approaches but none of them work.
So here is an example of my layer:
LAYER
TYPE POLYGON
STATUS ON
GROUP "default"
NAME "land"
PROJECTION
"init=epsg:900913"
END
DATA "../shapefiles/test"
CLASS
STYLE
COLOR 255 255 0
END
END
END
The relevant Map parameters:
OUTPUTFORMAT
NAME 'test'
DRIVER GD/PNG
IMAGEMODE PC256
FORMATOPTION "INTERLACE=false"
TRANSPARENT ON
END
IMAGECOLOR 255 255 0
I also tried agg/png drivers together with IMAGEMODE RGBA, but all
combinations give me a yellow, non transparent response (i request the
layer with transparent=true and image/png as format).
Can anyone give me an advice what i am doing wrong, or is this a bug?
Thanks,
J. Weskamm

Hi,
The following issue has been observed with MapServer 6.0.3:
1. Very good quality for a PNG with RESAMPLE=BILINEAR and
OVERSAMPLE_RATIO=16:
[image:

2. Less good quality for a PNG or JPEG with default resampling settings:

3. Awful quality for JPEG with RESAMPLE=BILINEAR and

Any idea why the OVERSAMPLE_RATIO affects heavily the quality of JPEG
images ?
