[mapserver-users] Rotated TrueType Font Symbols in PDFs

2010-11-11 Thread Donald Kerr
Hi List, Is there a problem with rotated TrueType font symbols using IMAGETYPE=PDF? They all appear as unrotated symbols using that format. If I change to IMAGETYPE=AGGA, there is no problem. Is this a bug or just that the PDF output hasn't yet been written to do TrueType font symbol rotation?

Thomas, ttf rotation is fixed in trunk for agg. the point of rotation is the centre of the symbol. That doesn't seem to be the case. If I rotate a TTF symbol then it appears offset as per the images I posted to the group earlier. Regards, Donald

Another potential solution would be to create a true type font character and use that as your symbol. That might be worth a try. I'll be working on this problem later today wo will give it a go and see how I get on. I also want to try getting the polyline points into a vector format just to
