[OpenLayers-Users] pdf export: why the request for tile dimensions of 625x458

Hi,

Yep, that makes sense and I had obviously gathered this by testing.

What I am interested in, is understanding 
...1.why/what is requesting this strange tile size.  625x458 is rather odd. GWC produces 256x256 Openlayers is also set to this dimension.
and 
...2. Why geoserver advertises TMS when It doesn´t load. 

http/maps.zgb.de/geoserver >right hand side as services > GWC ERROR 400: Unable to find handler for service "tms"

"That is, in essence, what you have to do programatically whenever youwant to print." --have no idea how I would go about doing this! will look into the geoext docs to see if there are any possibilities.

thanks anyway for helping and giving your time.

yours,

Rob

Hi Robert,

So just a quick one;

the error gwc request that you sent initially:
http://maps.zgb.de/geoserver/gwc/service/wms?BBOX=1176787.0%2C6892762.5%2C1181754.1%2C6899536.0&HEIGHT=625&WIDTH=458&map_resolution=75&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&TILESIZE=%7B%22w%22%3A256%2C%22h%22%3A256%7D&TRANSPARENT=true&VERSION=1.1.1&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&PROJECTION=EPSG%3A900913&format_options=dpi%3A75&LAYERS=zgb%3Atk50&SINGLETILE=false&SRS=EPSG%3A900913
doesn't work obviously, as you established. What I was saying about
stripping out the gwc part is that if you replace
http://maps.zgb.de/geoserver/gwc/service/wms?
with
http://maps.zgb.de/geoserver/zgb/wms?
you will get a request that works:
http://maps.zgb.de/geoserver/zgb/wms?BBOX=1176787.0%2C6892762.5%2C1181754.1%2C6899536.0&HEIGHT=625&WIDTH=458&map_resolution=75&SERVICE=WMS&REQUEST=GetMap&STYLES=&TILESIZE=%7B%22w%22%3A256%2C%22h%22%3A256%7D&TRANSPARENT=true&VERSION=1.1.1&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&PROJECTION=EPSG%3A900913&format_options=dpi%3A75&LAYERS=zgb%3Atk50&SINGLETILE=false&SRS=EPSG%3A900913

That is, in essence, what you have to do programatically whenever you
want to print.

Does that make more sense?

Toby
