How do I merge contours from Contour generator or Shape file onto a Geotiff?

I'm having trouble combining contours onto a geotiff raster prior to draping. Can anyone help me to find a process to get the contours onto the Geotiff, preferably with labels on the contours.

I've tried the contour generator and a shape file but having real difficulty projecting the contour data onto the raster successfully.

The easiest way would be to use the VectorOnRasterOverlayer or MapnikRasterizer. For the VectorOnRasterOverlayer you'll need to use a FeatureColorSetter first to specify a color for the contour lines, the MapnikRasterizer allows you to do that in its own properties.
