[mapserver-users] Truetype label with symbol problem

[jrom]

Hi,

I've tried without success to use truetype font with symbol objects.

In my layer class:

	LAYER 
  	  NAME Grille
  	  DATA "grille"
  	  TYPE POINT
     	  STATUS DEFAULT
  	  CLASS
   	    NAME "Grille"
   	    SYMBOL "fontsym"
      	    COLOR 255 0 0
            SIZE 24
  	  END 
	END 

       SYMBOL
         NAME "fontsym"
         TYPE truetype
         FONT arial
         CHARACTER "#"
       END

The FONTSET is defined correctly. I try to replace symbol object with a
label object using this font and it works to. But when i use it as a
symbol nothing appear (i have a blank map with scalebar (no error)).
I tried without success to:
	change the font
	change the version of mapserver (3.4, 3.5 and 3.6)
	change the OS (under linux and under windows)

But i have the same problem each time.

Did someone experience this problem  before?
