tileserver-gl + maplibre setup, map gets shown with no labels

I'm getting my data from geofabrik.de, render them using tilemaker, then I serve them using tileserver-gl and it by default uses maplibre. My styles are the default/example styles that tileserver uses in its example here, which are osm-bright and klokantech-basic.

I did this procedure for data of Iran (Perso-Arabic script), Iraq (Arabic script), and U.S. (English/Latin script). NO LABELS on map of Iran and Iraq, but HAS LABELS on map of the U.S.

Solution

  • The problem was with Glyphs and this solved my issue:

    1. get a Persian font like:

    1. generate pbf using:

    https://github.com/openmaptiles/fonts

    or a docker if it's hard to set up.
