Thomas,

 

We are currently using fibidi 0.19.2 and can try the later versions.

 

I have just had a look at 0.19.4 and 0.19.5 and I am not sure how to build 
them, there does not appear to be build instructions in them or a configure 
script.

 

Have you (or anyone else on the list) built these for Linux?

 

Thanks

 

Ian

Peter,

We don't do any shaping directly inside mapserver, but rely on the fribidi 
library to do that for us. Your mapfile definitions are correct to activate 
this (i.e. it includes an LABEL.ENCODING parameter).

I'll leave it up to you to confirm that the image sample I sent you is correct 
or not. If so, check that you have configured your mapserver with fribidi 
enabled and uptodate (the supplied image was rendered with 0.19.2 . some stable 
distros use a very outdated fribidi version, so you might need to upgrade 
manually) . If not, you can try with a bleeding edge fribidi (0.19.5 was 
released a few days ago), and/or report the issue or find help from the fribidi 
project directly.

 

please report back with your findings.

 

regards,

thomas

Hi Thomas,

Here is a link to a png Image I have created of using the simple Map File I 
provided in the previous postings, this is exactly how the Hindi text is 
rendering in Map Server:
http://www.maplusplus.com/images/Hindi_Incorrect.png

It is appearing incorrectly and should appear as shown in this link to Google 
Translate:

I am not sure if the Hindi you have provided is displaying correctly, although 
it appears to be similar to what I looked up in Google Translate.


Thank You for your help,

Peter Mallen

Peter,
You don't provide the rendering that mapserver is producing, so it's
difficult to compare. Is this rendering correct:
