Hello list, I've got a problem with the display of fonts. It is not a Geoserver problem, but as I cannot change IE8 I need to solve it from the Geoserver side. Question is: Is there any way I can spell out to IE don't pixelate the image and the label when overlaying?
In a program (client app) based on openLayers the cadastre in both browsers displays like that: http://lctest.land.vic.gov.au/cm/FF25_IE8_SPEAR.jpeg Crystal clear in Firefox, pixelated in IE8. The newer IE's are fine but the people using the application are on a standard desktop that comes with IE8, so they are stuck and so am I. Single layers come out o.k, please see comparison between IE and Firefox: http://lctest.land.vic.gov.au/cm/FF25_IE8_onelayer.jpeg The request as derived from Firebug for the image above is: http://xxx.x.x.x.x/geoserver/wms?LAYERS=sii%3AVSUP.V_PARCEL_MP_SDO&STYLES=&FORMAT=image%2Fpng&TILED=true&TILESORIGIN=1786000%2C1997264.4991957&TRANSPARENT=true&SERVICE=WMS&VERSION=1.1.1&REQUEST=GetMap&EXCEPTIONS=application%2Fvnd.ogc.se_inimage&SRS=EPSG%3A3111&BBOX=2508851.5140388,2404315.4604025,2508959.8875889,2404423.8339526&WIDTH=512&HEIGHT=512 As this request delivers images that are o.k. in both browsers, the accident must happen in IE8 in the process of overlaying the image and the basemap. The relevant bit of the sld used is: <sld:PolygonSymbolizer> <sld:Stroke> <sld:CssParameter name="stroke"> <ogc:Literal>#000000</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="stroke-linecap"> <ogc:Literal>butt</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="stroke-linejoin"> <ogc:Literal>miter</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="stroke-opacity"> <ogc:Literal>1</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="stroke-width"> <ogc:Literal>1.0</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="stroke-dashoffset"> <ogc:Literal>0</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> </sld:Stroke> </sld:PolygonSymbolizer> <sld:TextSymbolizer> <sld:Label> <ogc:PropertyName>PARCEL_SPI</ogc:PropertyName> </sld:Label> <sld:Font> <sld:CssParameter name="font-family"> <ogc:Literal>Arial</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="font-size"> <ogc:Literal>10</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="font-style"> <ogc:Literal>Normal</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="font-weight"> <ogc:Literal>normal</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> </sld:Font> <sld:LabelPlacement> <sld:PointPlacement> <sld:AnchorPoint> <sld:AnchorPointX> <ogc:Literal>0.0</ogc:Literal> </sld:AnchorPointX> <sld:AnchorPointY> <ogc:Literal>1</ogc:Literal> </sld:AnchorPointY> </sld:AnchorPoint> <sld:Displacement> <sld:DisplacementX> <ogc:Literal>-30</ogc:Literal> </sld:DisplacementX> <sld:DisplacementY> <ogc:Literal>0</ogc:Literal> </sld:DisplacementY> </sld:Displacement> <sld:Rotation> <ogc:Literal>0</ogc:Literal> </sld:Rotation> </sld:PointPlacement> </sld:LabelPlacement> <sld:Fill> <sld:CssParameter name="fill"> <ogc:Literal>#000000</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> <sld:CssParameter name="fill-opacity"> <ogc:Literal>1</ogc:Literal> </sld:CssParameter> </sld:Fill> <VendorOption name="group">yes</VendorOption> </sld:TextSymbolizer> polygons with a black rim and no fill, nothing exciting.... Any suggestions for the request or SLD?
