Hi,
Unfortunately I do not know your script.
In a basic WMS usage the available formats are announced in GetCapabilities
(hmm, seems to be version 5.6.5...)
http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wms?SERVICE=WMSVERSION=1.3.0REQUEST=Getcapabilities
So if this is the default 8-bit png
http://demo.mapserver.org/cgi-bin/wms?SERVICE=WMSVERSION=1.1.1REQUEST=GetMapBBOX=-180,-90,180,90SRS=EPSG:4326WIDTH=953HEIGHT=480LAYERS=bluemarble,continents,country_bounds,citiesSTYLES=FORMAT=image/pngTRANSPARENT=true
Then this one using image/png; mode=24bit gives it as 24-bit

Hello,
Basically I would want to get a resulting png8 files because png32 produces a
larger file (in KiB).
Can someone clear this out for me? If I change PNG32 to PNG8 is returns the
same thing (a png32). If I comment this line in the script I still get PNG32.
Where does it get the image format from? I thought it is from the mapfile but I
cannot seem to change this output. I would need some help in where to look
first in order to find the issue.
Running shp2img on the mapfile returns the desired outcome, a png8
Thank you all,
