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

Bernard, 
 
To make angle rotation work, you need to use a truetype font, the bitmap
font 'tiny' that you have defined in your layer won't work.  
 
I would also probably turn off minfeaturesize and mindistance until you
get something working.
 
David.
