Hi,<div>I know some people have experimented with sqlite, but I have not heard of it being used much for rendering osm data - you would have to search the OSM wiki or osm-dev mailing list archive for it. </div><div><br></div>
<div>If you are new to the tools, it is probably easier to use postgresql, as more people use that so will be able to help. </div><div>There is a good step-by-step tutorial for setting everything up on Ubuntu at <a href="http://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-12-04/">http://switch2osm.org/serving-tiles/manually-building-a-tile-server-12-04/</a>. You will not need the mod_tile and renderd bits, but the postgresql and mapnik installation instructions are useful. You can then use generate_image.py (which comes with the OSM mapnik stylesheet) to create a map image. </div>
<div>Once you have it working, you can then experiment with changing things.</div><div><br></div><div>(There is also a Mapnik plugin to read osm files directly, which may work for small areas, but I have never used it) - again probably best to practice with postgresql first.</div>

<div>This is what I want to achieve.<br>
Can I substitute postgresql by sqlite?<br>
Can you put a tutorial of how to do that? (I think it's good to
put in wiki)<br>
<br>
If sqlite subtitution is not possible, I will try to do with
postgresql. But I need more help... ;-)<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,<br>

Thanks, Graham, but I can't select Mallorca. Why?<br>
Can you include Topographic levels too?<br>
<br>
Thanks for that.<br>

Hi,<br>
<br>
I want to print Mallorca [<a href="http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=39.677&lon=2.856&zoom=9&layers=M" target="_blank">http://www.openstreetmap.org/?lat=39.677&lon=2.856&zoom=9&layers=M</a>].
I consulted OSM on Paper wiki page [<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_on_Paper" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/OSM_on_Paper</a>],
and I started using OSMARENDER [<a href="http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmarender" target="_blank">http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Osmarender</a>]
but for me it's so complicated (for defining
rules).
<div><br>
<br>
Is there any more easy program to generate svg
files?<br>
<br>
</div>
By the other hand, I want to include topographic
curves like in Cycle Map and some manual POIs
(starting and ending points of my personal trip
around Serra de Tramuntana).<br>
<br>
What is the easiest method for doing that? When I
have svg, easyly I could pass to pdf and print a
plane ;-)<br>
<br>
Thanks in advance,
<div><br>
Xan.<br>
