[Qgis-user] Text Size in WMS maps

[Ziegler Stefan]

I think QGIS supports Mapserver, Geoserver and QGIS Server syntax:

QGIS wms request (snippet from apache log file):

/wms/avwms?SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.3.0&REQUEST=GetMap&BBOX=593935.2762915793573484,218157.3791828494577203,630296.8752945793094113,248210.9839420588396024&CRS=EPSG:21781&WIDTH=1003&HEIGHT=829&LAYERS=AVWMS_farbig&STYLES=&FORMAT=image/jpeg&DPI=96&MAP_RESOLUTION=96&FORMAT_OPTIONS=dpi:96

DPI -> QGIS Server
MAP_RESOLUTION -> Mapserver
FORMAT_OPTIONS -> Geoserver
