Hi Allesandro,<br>
<br>
In fact, Marco is currently working on exactly what you want. He is
extending QGIS mapserver with a GetPrint command that allows to
specify the map extent, the layout/template to use, rotation
parameter, dpi, etc. and you'll get a PDF/SVG/PNG/JPEG as output.
The templates will be picked up from the QGIS project file.<br>
<br>
If you can wait until next year (probably mid to end of January) it
will be part of QGIS mapserver.<br>
<br>
So no need to work on it in parallel - unless you have something
else in mind.<br>
<br>

Thanks Martin,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I have already found your example, but it is for a plugin,
isn't it ?</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I remember I tried to make it work from outside qgis
(standalone) without success.<br>
<br>
</div>
<div>What I would like to achieve is a CGI-style application which
takes WMS-like parameters (like qgis-mapserver does) and a
printcomposer template to generate a (vectorial) PDF.</div>
