[Mapserver-users] autorotate labels

[Valerio]

Thank you Eric,
I set up the text file and now it works and rotate labels.
Just a thing:
Labels have a very low resolution. I tried to set up antialias parameter to
true but without results.
It is a small area with big scale data so I'd like to keep text size low
(lower than 10).
Any idea?
...
LABEL
COLOR 0 0 0
SIZE 7
FONT arial
ANGLE AUTO
TYPE TRUETYPE
#MINSIZE 4
#MAXSIZE 60
OFFSET 3 3
MINDISTANCE 100
ANTIALIAS TRUE
END
....

Thanks

Valerio
