RE: [mapserver-users] Truetype font rendering changes?
No. Unfortunately none of the sites are accessible from the outside. The best I can do are screenshots. I attached two examples from the same Linux server. One is from the FGS95 (MS54) environment and the other (MS60) is under the main system environment. Both samples are of Arial Narrow 7 point, and the image is rendered using the following output format: OUTPUTFORMAT NAME 'agg_q' DRIVER AGG/PNG IMAGEMODE RGB FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_FORCE=ON FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_DITHER=OFF FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_COLORS=256 END I freely confess to not knowing much about the various output formats. This one I picked from the list some time long ago. I tried other formats also, both 8- and 24-bit and both the AGG and Cairo drivers, but I have not noticed any clear differences.

Re: [mapserver-users] Truetype font rendering changes?
Johan, You need to provide a simple test case if you want a developer to help diagnose this problem. I would suggest creating a simple mapfile that draws a single label like the following. Adjust it to your needs MAP SIZE 100 100 EXTENT 100 100 UNITS inches FONTSET fontset.txt IMAGETYPE ... OUTPUTFORMAT ... END LAYER TYPE POINT STATUS DEFAULT FEATURE POINTS 50 50 END END CLASS STYLE SYMBOL 0 COLOR 0 0 0 END TEXT 123 LABEL TYPE TRUETYPE FONT arial-narrow SIZE 7 COLOR 0 0 0 END END END END Test this on both servers. Also make sure you are using the same font file, ie copy it to your test example directory and create a new fontset.txt that only have this single font referenced in it. If you still get different results, then tar/zip up the test example and email it to Steve L or me and I will make it available as a link if you can post a link to it. -Steve W On 5/7/2012 11:31 AM, Johan Forsman wrote: No. Unfortunately none of the sites are accessible from the outside.

RE: [mapserver-users] polygon border artifacts
The artifacts are more or less prominent depending on the color something is drawn over. I think it's a result of the analytic anti-aliasing done by AGG. I had read a thread once that talked about it, I recall it being most prominent with horizontal and vertical lines. In the example Sven provided if you change the IMAGE color also to blue you don't see any artifacts between ocean polys, although of course you don't see the islands, so the artifacts is related to anti-aliasing blue on red. A different background might make it more subtle. The work around is easy enough, draw an outline, although I don't know why anti-aliasing associated with that rendering doesn't itself produce an artifact.

The artifact is getting worse in lower zoom levels (smaller islands). I just tried a huge overlap of the polygons which made it better but did not make it disapear also. So the workaround could be to find the perfect combination of outlinewidth (as small as possible) and overlap factor (also as small as possible). Should an outline always be drawn? Tiled ocean polygons like I have them should be the perfect example where an outline just does not make sense. One would probably want to have an outline on the coastline but not on polygon borders. Something one would need to render from a separate linestring layer anyway.

Re: [mapserver-users] Mapserver + mapcache + Google Map
Does apache have permission to write to the mapcache directory /var/www/mapcache/cache?

Re: [mapserver-users] Truetype font rendering changes?
Hello Johan, I have created bug #4308 https://github.com/mapserver/mapserver/issues/4308 and put a link to your tar file on my server. Thank you for taking the time to create a simple test case, I'm sure this will accelerate getting it resolved. -Steve W On 5/7/2012 4:06 PM, Johan Forsman wrote: Hello Steve and thanks. I adapted your example and packaged a small test case following your instructions. It's attached. I ran it with MS54 under FGS95 on Linux and also with MS60 under the main environment on the same server, as well as with MS60 under MS4W3 on Windows Server 3008. I see the same rendering differences as in my general case originally reported. I hope the attachment provides the data you need.

Johan, You need to provide a simple test case if you want a developer to help diagnose this problem. I would suggest creating a simple mapfile that draws a single label like the following. Adjust it to your needs MAP SIZE 100 100 EXTENT 100 100 UNITS inches FONTSET fontset.txt IMAGETYPE ... OUTPUTFORMAT ... END LAYER TYPE POINT STATUS DEFAULT FEATURE POINTS 50 50 END END CLASS STYLE SYMBOL 0 COLOR 0 0 0 END TEXT 123 LABEL TYPE TRUETYPE FONT arial-narrow SIZE 7 COLOR 0 0 0 END END END END Test this on both servers. Also make sure you are using the same font file, ie copy it to your test example directory and create a new fontset.txt that only have this single font referenced in it. If you still get different results, then tar/zip up the test example and email it to Steve L or me and I will make it available as a link if you can post a link to it. -Steve W On 5/7/2012 11:31 AM, Johan Forsman wrote: No. Unfortunately none of the sites are accessible from the outside. The best I can do are screenshots. I attached two examples from the same Linux server. One is from the FGS95 (MS54) environment and the other (MS60) is under the main system environment. Both samples are of Arial Narrow 7 point, and the image is rendered using the following output format: OUTPUTFORMAT NAME 'agg_q' DRIVER AGG/PNG IMAGEMODE RGB FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_FORCE=ON FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_DITHER=OFF FORMATOPTION QUANTIZE_COLORS=256 END I freely confess to not knowing much about the various output formats. This one I picked from the list some time long ago. I tried other formats also, both 8- and 24-bit and both the AGG and Cairo drivers, but I have not noticed any clear differences. Thanks for any suggestions and I'll be glad to collect additional information if needed.

Thank you for the suggestion however I regret to report that there is no discernible difference in the appearance of the text when using cairopng in the Windows environment. I have also created a test case using MS6 on the same Linux server (but outside the FGS95 environment) as my MS5.4 and the text is rendered exactly the same as on the Windows platform, with the same reduced legibility.

Hello All: I am in the process of migrating from MapServer 5.4 (FGS95 on Linux) to MapServer 6 (MS4W3 on Windows Server 2008 R2). Most things are migrating well however I have a peculiar TrueType font rendering issue where the readability on the new system is far less than on the old system. I have attached two screenshots taken at the same scale to illustrate the issue. In these images the parish labels are Arial Bold Italic 6 pt., the interstate shields are Arial 8 pt., and US highway shields are Arial Narrow 7 pt. The TTF files and the MAP files were copied directly from the old system
