Thanks Jean-Claude, I was using EPSG:900913 for the OSM tiles and Googled about it looking for the +towgs84 parameter but couldn't find anything. I did find several posts about EPSG:3785 being the same as EPSG:900913 and that one does have the +towgs84 parameter. Should I use that proj4 string instead? +proj=merc +lon_0=0 +k=1 +x_0=0 +y_0=0 +a=6378137 +b=6378137 +towgs84=0,0,0,0,0,0,0 +units=m +no_defs
And how about the custom projection? Do you have any idea how to create a proj4 style string from that?
