Hi,
I'm trying to render some Farsi (Persian) labels on my map. As you may know,
Farsi words are written from right to left, just like Hebrew.
I've changed the label's encoding to 'Windows-1256' in my mapfile and I'm using
TrueType fonts. Farsi letters have appeared. But the problem is that letters
are in revers order and letters are not joining properly.
Of course reversing the letters' order in database will cause the right order
of them when rendering the map. But I wanna know if there's any other way to
show farsi labels in right order with no joining problems.
[Actually, I'm using Ka-Map on the top of Mapserver to render my maps on the
web. Ka-Mappers told me that my problem is a kind of Mapserver problems]
Any new ideas are welcomed.
Thanx.
