Oh, I didn't even know that those .ofs file existed, but indeed I see them mentionned in http://www.gdal.org/ogr/ogr_feature_style.html . However, from a quick look, although this seems to be implemented in ogr/ogrfeaturestyle.cpp, this feature isn't used by any driver. > I did notice that I can change the colour > of the features through Acrobat reader's UI, but I cannot set > the line width.

Yes, as far as I remember the current state of the code, the pen width is scaled with the coordinates of the geometries, so the appropriate value of the width depends on whether you work with projected or geographic SRS, and the layer spatial extent. > Areas, which are drawn > as semi-transparent with a light grey fill are OK. Even if table level styling isn't supported, the PDF writer can fetch the style at the feature level (not at the table level like you tried). You can for example try the following to attach the style to the features : ogr2ogr -f PDF poly.pdf poly.shp -sql "select *, 'PEN(c:#FF0000,w:5px)' as OGR_STYLE from poly" Best regards, Even _______________________________________________ gdal-dev mailing list gdal-dev@lists.osgeo.org http://lists.osgeo.org/mailman/listinfo/gdal-dev
