Hi B,
Things look correct in your setup. You might want to try having the
fontset.txt and all the font files in the same directory. I'm not sure
if this is necessary but it is usually how I set things up. Also ensure
the permission settings for the font files allows mapserver to read
them. That is all I can see to try. Hope it helps,
