[Mapserver-users] French Labels

[Liz Godwin]

Hello,

I having problem with labels having french accents in my map.  The characters are displayed as boxes instead of "é" for
example.

My Label class is as follows:
      LABEL
        TYPE TRUETYPE
        FONT "fritqat"
        SIZE 8
        POSITION AUTO
        BUFFER 2
        COLOR 0 0 0
        OUTLINECOLOR 255 255 255
        ANTIALIAS TRUE
        PARTIALS FALSE
      END

I have looked at the DBF file belonging to the shapefile, and the accents are present.

Another layer I use that looks up a placename and adds it to the map works fine.  The label it adds includes the
accented character.  

It is only that these map labels are not displaying correctly.

Help would be appreciated.
