Bitmaps or Vectors for POI icons

Verfasst von Aubanel am 16. Oktober 2008 in English

When exporting a mapnik map to SVG or PDF, the POI icons are bitmaps and not vectors. As a result they look blurry when printed at 300dpi. Is this because they are drawn as bitmaps or because of some mapnik limitations involving rasterization of the POI icons ?
If it's just because of the lack of a vector icon set I volonter to fix this problem. Just tell me ...

It's because mapnik does not support vector icons at the moment - please feel free to fix this limitation.

OK, that's an entirely different problem then ... I'm going to dive in the archives of the mapnik ML. And thanks for the info.
