1. map data of a small portion of Hong Kong, in MapInfo format
2. Chinese font named "mingliu", and the font list.
3. a map file with just road and its label layers.

I still need a good test case- mapfile, font and data. So that would REALLY
help.

This is a known issue with curved labels. It will hopefully be fixed in

Greetings.
I've trying to make a map in Chinese
http://www3.mapasia.com/jackout/ms.jpg.
I've set the ANGLE of all road labels to FOLLOW. It seems some of the
label hasn't been broken up properly, as you can see in the image, but
most labels are correct. How to fix it?
Here's the part of the map file:
LABEL
ANGLE FOLLOW
ENCODING "Big5-HKSCS"
COLOR 0 0 0
OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255
TYPE TRUETYPE
FONT mingliu
SIZE 9
ANTIALIAS TRUE
POSITION AUTO
PARTIALS FALSE
MINDISTANCE 500
BUFFER 5
END
