Hi Puneet, I did try feeding MapServer the correct Unicode characters, and it did fix the characters using what I believe is called the "Reph" symbol (ि) but I could not get the conjunct consonants to display correctly. Also, I have posted on the fribidi list and I believe it does only help wit

Thanks for your time and suggestions! - I'll have a good look at the filter again. - I understand this. Even if I would want to, it doesn't work with Mapserver, which is what brought me here. (Since we have the server under control also, the complications you mention would be less of an issue, but

Thanks for the info. I had tried it and I could get a simple ?mode=map from it that rendered my entire map. However anything else did not work for me. mode=tile, wms requests, etc. I didn't look further than that, so I'm just using it as cgi at the moment. However anything that might improve perf
