And how do you know your paths are correct <g>? What does your font
table look like, and what is the name of the font you're trying to use?

Subject: [Mapserver-users] can't display truetype fonts
I'm having trouble with using true type fonts in my mapserver
application. Basically, if I specify a label as truetype, I receive the
following message: "msGetLabelSize(): TrueType Font error. Could not
find/open font ."=20
If I specify a label as bitmap, it displays correctly.=20
My paths are correct and no problems were noticed during installation.=20
I'm not sure why this is happening - should I have some type of
'truetype.dll' somewhere?=20
I'm running the following:=20
Windows 2000=20
Mapserver 4.2=20
php mapscript 4.3.4=20
Apache 2.0=20
MapScript=20
MapServer Version MapServer version 4.2.0 OUTPUT=3DGIF OUTPUT=3DPNG
OUTPUT=3DJPEG OUTPUT=3DWBMP OUTPUT=3DPDF OUTPUT=3DSWF SUPPORTS=3DPROJ
SUPPORTS=3DFREETYPE SUPPORTS=3DWMS_SERVER SUPPORTS=3DWMS_CLIENT
SUPPORTS=3DWFS_SERVER SUPPORTS=3DWFS_CLIENT INPUT=3DPOSTGIS INPUT=3DOGR
INPUT=3DGDAL INPUT=3DSHAPEFILE=20
PHP MapScript Version ($Revision: 1.194.2.3 $ $Date: 2004/05/13
21:37:44 $)=20
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks.=20
