Just an idea: You are using PNG images as labels which get transformed 
(rotated) and the AGG renderer draws them using anti-aliasing. But MapServer 
tends to cut short some code paths and so it probably does for simple 
transforms like rotation by 90/180/270° and which might ommit anti-aliasing... 
Since code says more than thousand words, what version are you using? BTW: 
What's the reason to use pre-rendered labels?

Betreff: [mapserver-users] Image Symbol Rendering Quality

Hey All,

I am having a strang problem with my map.  I am creating a layer composed 
entirely of PNG symbols.  However, there is a very strang problem I am 
experiencing:  Not all of the symbols are rendering iwth the same quality.  
This is best seen with the following image:

http://img708.imageshack.us/i/symbolquality.png/

As you can see, the circled image is far more "crisp" than the rest of the 
images, which appear blurry.  I've checked the image quality of the original 
images for all these images that appear blurry, and they are all good quality 
images that appear as crisp and clear as the circled image, but when mapserver 
renders them, they are losing significant quality.  Why would this image appear 
more clear than the others?

I am using AGG as my renderer, using pngs for input and output.  This is my 
outputformat directive in the mapfile:

OUTPUTFORMAT
        NAME "AGGA"
        MIMETYPE "image/png; mode=24bit"        
        DRIVER "AGG/PNG"
        IMAGEMODE "RGBA"
        TRANSPARENT TRUE
        EXTENSION "PNG"
        FORMATOPTION "INTERLACE=FALSE"
    END

Any ideas or help would be great.  Thanks.

-Adam
