Are you using TrueType fonts?  MapServer can only rotate TrueType text.

Subject: [Mapserver-users] Label: ANGLE auto

Hello all,
   I am having trouble getting ANGLE working for the LABEL object. All =
of the labels (road names for a centerline layer) are simply =
horizontally aligned.=20
=20
   I'm using "ANGLE: Auto" under the proper label object to no avail.=20
=20
   Here are some system specs:
        Mapserver - v3.6.6 (downloaded binary - OGR / GIF support)
        Win2000
=20
   And here's a code snippet:
=20
 LAYER=20
    NAME "vroadname"
    DATA Vanderburgh_centerline
    STATUS DEFAULT
    TYPE ANNOTATION
    LABELITEM "street_nam"
    LABELMAXSCALE 72000
    CLASS
        LABEL
            ANGLE auto
            MINDISTANCE 50
            POSITION CC
            SIZE TINY
            COLOR 0 0 0
        END
    END
END
=20
      Any clue as to what I'm doing wrong? Thanks for the help.
