Dear all,

The new version of GD has included the capability in
showing "Shift_JIS" (japanese) and "Big-5" (traditional chinese) fonts
with the new function gdImageStringFTEx, instead of gdImageStringFT.

It would be great if the next release of mapserver can include this =
capability.
Or a patch for adding this capability will be greatly appreciated.
(If anyone can provide such a patch, we are willing to pay for it, if
  the price is affordable.)

Sincerely,
   Pei-Hwao Li
