[Maposmatic-dev] Small size, a blocking problem for the release

[Thomas Petazzoni]

Hello Gaël,

I am getting back to you regarding the too small size problem we
discussed at the end of the hackfest, because this problem is
definitely blocker and we cannot put the new MapOSMatic in production
before it is solved.

If you look at http://dev.maposmatic.org/jobs/416, you will see that
the index is clearly unreadable. The PNG has a size of 1184px × 1165px
and the PDF has a size of 418 × 411 mm.

On the other hand, you can look at
http://www.maposmatic.org/jobs/38686, which is a rendering for the
exact same city, but with the old ocitysmap code. Of course, the index
is not on the same side, so direct comparison wouldn't make sense, but
the width of the two PNG pictures should be the same (since the index
is at the bottom on the new rendering). And here the PNG size is 2906px
× 2041px, while the PDF size is 1025 × 720 mm.

Look for example at square C4 on both maps. On the old rendering, you
can see streets such as "Rue du Paradis", "Rue de l'Adèle", "Rue de
Pérignat", "Rue du Petit", while on the new rendering, none of those
streets are visible (well the streets themselves are visible, but not
their name).

So there is clearly a problem with the rendering size choosen with the
new ocitysmap2. Would you have some time to have a look at this?

Thanks!

Thomas
