[mapserver-users] STREET LABEL WON'T FOLLOW THE STREET

[Daniel Morissette]

To use ANGLE FOLLOW or ANGLE AUTO, you must use TrueType fonts. The 
default bitmap fonts (e.g. SIZE TINY) cannot be rotated.

More info about using truetype fonts is available in the MapServer 
tutorial at http://biometry.gis.umn.edu/tutorial/example1-4.html
