Mark,

We haven't gone down this road yet ourselves, but I would suggest taking a look at SVG symbols for this type of work.

We're just getting ready to convert our Mapfiles to use the newer versions of MapServer and the SVG symbols are a looking like a good all around solution moving forward.

Subject: [mapserver-users] roads shields, and street name labels

Hello,

I would like to label my roads layer with a highway shield as well as the street name.  What is the best way to accomplish this with MapServer 6.2?  If anyone has an example .map file that would be great.

Thank You
