Problems showing mapInfo text layer without OGR {Scanned} {Scanned}

[Siki Zoltan]

Hi Frederico,

Tra something like this

LAYER
	NAME "sample"
	DATA "path/to/your/shape"
	STATUS ON
	TYPE ANNOTATION
	LABELITEM "text_field_to_display"
	LABELMAXSCALE 8001
	SYMBOLSCALE 2000 # you need it for scaleable labels
	CLASS
		LABEL
			COLOR 240 150 5
			SIZE 7
			POSITION CC
			FONT my_font	# defined in your FONTSET file
			TYPE TRUETYPE
			ANGLE AUTO
		END
	END
END

I hope this helps you
