Wei,

1. Make sure you have the directory C:\Proj\Nad and in that directory a
file named "epsg".

2. The SWF format is beyond the scope of the tutorial (which is meant to
get you started with simple png/png24/gif output formats).  The flash
format requires a plugin and so can't be read directly by the browser. 
If you want an example of a flash application, you need to look at
http://www2.dmsolutions.ca/mapserver/dl/FlashMapserverUserDoc.html

3. Give us more detail here.  Show me your font list and a snippet of
your mapfile and maybe I can help.

When I try this, I would receive many strange character on browser.(I both try to use chinese fonts or westen fonts for the font attribute). I have heard the GD module can show correctly. So I think mapserver can show also, right? And what to do?
