[mapguide-users] Labels not visible in Demo

[Jackie Ng]

The demo data references fonts (eg. Verdana) that don't exist on a Linux
installation by default, meaning your labels will either not exist or look
like strange cryptic hieroglyphs when rendered.

The general fix is to install msttcorefonts (which has the Verdana font,
among others) on your system and if required, tell MapGuide where these
fonts are located in your serverconfig.ini (via the LinuxFontDirectories
setting)
