Greetings! We've build the MapServer 5.2 on a Linux server, with fribidi2 0.19.1, to try show Arabic labels. But the words has been broken down to characters in the generated images (line.png). Then we've tried on a MS4W 2.3.0 server, but the images (ms4w.png) are even worse.
We are using PostGIS, and the database is using UTF8 (pgpr.png), while all Arabic data can be shown correctly (pg.png) on my English Windows XP, and we've tried some more machines, or on IE, to make sure that Arabic text in database are really UTF8. Here's the images: http://www3.mapasia.com/jackout/ara.png The part of the map file is as follow, where the "arbic-trans" is a Arabic TrueType font named "Arabic Transparent": LABEL ANGLE FOLLOW PRIORITY [priority] ENCODING "UTF-8" COLOR 0 0 0 OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255 TYPE TRUETYPE FONT "arbic-trans" SIZE 7 POSITION AUTO PARTIALS FALSE MINDISTANCE 500 BUFFER 1 MINFEATURESIZE 50 END Could anyone please help.
