[mapserver-users] Using fallback fonts?

[Sven Geggus]

Hello,

in Mapnik it is possible to use an alternate font if a character is not
available on the standard font:

<FontSet name="book-fonts">
  <Font face-name="DejaVu Sans Book" />
  <Font face-name="unifont Medium" />
</FontSet>

With Openstreetmap Data it is often the case, that a given character is only
available in unifont but not in "DejaVu Sans Book" (the default).

If I correctly understand the documentation of FONTSET correctly this is
impossible to do this in mapserver.

Am I right in this assumption?

Sven
