[Mapserver-users] Error when using labels TYPE=truetype

[Björn Platzen]

Hi all,

I am using MapServer 3.6.5 with TTF-Support on a SuSE Linux 8.0-Box.

When using TYPE=truetype on labels I get the following error:
msGetLabelSize(): TrueType Font error. Could not find/open font

I have dfined the alias in my font.list and the ttf-file is available in 
the same directory. chmod'ing the ttf-files to 755 did have no effect.

Here are some snippets:
<mapfile>

Am I doing something wrong??

Thanks for any help
