For my 2c, I was excited when heard about mapfish a decade or so ago, but quickly lost interest because it lacked support for google tiles. If more map layers were supported, then I suspect there would be more interest. I have users of my webmaps (which depend on slightly better than browser screenshots) asking for higher res imagery. Layer support was the achilles heel. Better support for ESRI services and vector tiles would be needed for it to be really interesting. Since virtually all my webmapping deals with layers from multiple services, not just geoserver, a mapfish server that is only operating on a single geoserver instance is less interesting.

Do not click links or open attachments unless you recognize the sender and know the content is safe: 😀 So, as far as I understand you are suggesting to bring the mapfish print to the community module of geoserver? Is it considered a community module or extension? Because it's on the extensions download page of geoserver. (https://geoserver.org/release/stable/ --> Cartography) I can give it a try on doing that.

If it is only the geoserver project using mapfish printv2 then the geoserver community should come up with a plan ... so I was presenting some plans :P​ If you are making pull-requests then you have some technical capacity so you are exactly who we want to make plans with.... -- Jody Garnett On Jul 8, 2024 at 12:57:05 AM, Tiago Vieira <tixvie...@gmail.com<mailto:tixvie...@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi Jody, This is the project that supports the "Printing" extension in geoserver, right? I don't know if many people use it, but in our project we use this printing plugin a long time ago :) Is there any alternative to have a vectorial print? And also, with this printv2 we are able to print maps with google maps tiles included. I think the functionality of naming the PDF Layers is essential, so an end-user will be able to have a human readable translation, instead of internal layer names.

So you know of people who are interested in this functionality? It would be good to assemble an activity to update / migrate / or inokement something comparable in geotools. -- Jody Garnett On Sun, Jul 7, 2024 at 1:04 PM Tiago Vieira <tixvie...@gmail.com<mailto:tixvie...@gmail.com>> wrote: Hi, I don't know if this is the right mailing list to use, but do you know who can review the 3 PR in the mapfish print v2 github, and do a new release to upgrade the extensions of a next geoserver version. https://github.com/mapfish/mapfish-print-v2/pulls Thank you, Tiago Vieira _______________________________________________ Geoserver-users mailing list Please make sure you read the following two resources before posting to this list: - Earning your support instead of buying it, but Ian Turton: http://www.ianturton.com/talks/foss4g.html#/ - The GeoServer user list posting guidelines: http://geoserver.org/comm/userlist-guidelines.html If you want to request a feature or an improvement, also see this: https://github.com/geoserver/geoserver/wiki/Successfully-requesting-and-integrating-new-features-and-improvements-in-GeoServer Geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net<mailto:Geoserver-users@lists.sourceforge.net> https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/geoserver-users Notice: This email and any attachments are confidential and may not be used, published or redistributed without the prior written consent of the Institute of Geological and Nuclear Sciences Limited (GNS Science).
