[mapserver-users] Font encoding

[Bennos]

Hi,

I want to display labels of attributes of my shapefile which i exported from
ArcMap 9.3. These attributes have special characters like Š, Č and Ž which
are part of every Latin1 or ISO-8859-2 encoded font. The problem is, that
mapserver doesnt show the right characters but something like [?]. The funny
thing is, that I also use other special characters, like Ç, which are
generated without problem.
In the mapfile I allready tried different encodings, even when i change the
encoding of the font there is no difference. I tried to use different fonts,
too. Maybe the problem is that i generated the shapefile on WinXP and the
Mapserver runs on UNIX? Another thing i would like to check is the encoding
of the shapefile, but i have no idea how to do this, anyone else? 
I really have tried a lot and I hope someone of you can help me.

Cheers,
Benjamin
