Adding Labels to a Vector Map with Java Mapscript

[Rodriguez, Heraldo]

Hi Alejandro ,  I hope this helps. You should replicate in mapscript
something similar to  the configuration that appear below.

  I understand that he Type attribute should be setted to truetype  By the
way, did you check if the  FONTSET attribute 

Is pointing to the correct location

 

 

 

FONTSET         "/usr/local/common/mapserver/font.list"

 

 

 

Label

                                               Size     8 

                                               type      truetype

                                               POSITION AUTO

                                               MINDISTANCE 100       

                                               font       "vera"

                                               color     66 89 255

                                               minfeaturesize 5            

                                   end

 

 

                                   Regards.

Can you post a sample generated image with only this layer on and your
fontset file?
You could also try to remove mindistance and to set the layer's status
to MS_DEFAULT.

Umberto
